19's and NOT Lowered?
Are there any pics out there of 19's on a RL that is not lowered?
Originally I was planning 18's and didn't really want to drop the car (my daily driver including winter, crap roads here and already scrape in a few places where there is no way to take an angle approach, etc) but I am worried about fitment issues with the smaller wheels vs the 19's that have no issues with others already successfully running them on the RL - and, there actually seems to be more choice of 19 inch rubber than 18 out there to go with the wheels.
If the wheel vendor was local I'd have no problem trying 18s with a fitment guarantee, but no matter what I do I will have to order the wheels most likely from the US and that makes returns, etc a major hassle

I do not understand the rubber part. I always thought there was way more choice in 245/45-18 vs 245/40-19 when you do a search...although I have not researched it for a about 6 months.
I am running 255/40-19 now, it is a little bigger tire, 1.5% taller, so you get a speedo and odo error. Even though they are larger sized, you will still get more sidewall height with 245/45-18's or 245/50-17's

This is the only one I can think of right now, and pulling links off a phone sucks. Post 37 is where the pics start.
