Ace Allures are hot, Axis Milanos look cool and they are both cheap. You can get those Lowenharts in an imitation brand for cheap. Just make sure they have a nice size lip and they will look good

For those who have 19's what size is the WIDTH????? I asked this question before but people just respond with "They are 19's" I know that, but how wide are they 19X????? (7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9)
Mantis - how much of a drop do you have on your car? Any problems with rubbing & what size are your tires?

Mantis & Red-CL - What size are your tires and how rough/smooth is the ride? I'm leaning towards getting 18's b/c I don't want to have to deal with BENT rims.

I have both the 19x8 Axis and the 18x7 Centerline RPM's. I can tell you, without a doubt, the 18" ride is alot softer and the handling is waaaay better. Part of that is the weight difference btwn the two but the 225 series tires on the 19's will give you a pounding on those everyday commutes. The 19's look better and that's about it.

mine are 19" (i think by 8") on 215/35/19
1.75" drop, never rubbed...ever.
no bent rims...and the difference between 18" and 19" will not prevent you from bending a rim. u just have to pay attention.
