I need you guys honest opinion

I need you guys honest opinion on some rims im getting hooked up with.



Ok the 1st ones i like my self there not to bad. These come in 19x7.5 I want to paint the spokes black to match my car and polish the lip i think that's look tight.

The 2nd ones just stay the way they are these come in 18x7.5.

THe two sets come with a 45 offset which would fit nice right? Just in case you guys wanted to know im getting them for $500 bucks with tires.

the 19" wheel with +45 offset might rub... you should have at least 48 with 19" wheels... the 18 should be fine tho.

Purely asthetically, I don't like the rim on the right due to all the fasteners on the peripheral of it (are they for looks or functional?).

i say get the first ones. 19x75 +45 offset with a 225/35/19 tire wont rub, and if it does, it will be very minimal and fixable. i say get the first ones and do what said u would do to them.

Whops! Hehe, I just re-read his post...looks like those only come in 18's Get the other wheels just because they're 19x7.5. Those 2nd pair of wheels would look real nice if they came in 19's

IMO, the second one looks a lot better on our car.

BTW, can we get the same hookup?

Both are nice, I like the first ones better but it depends on the color of the car. Yours will be like black on black, I don't know, have you try to use like tire rack or one of those to see if they have the rims and then see how they look on your car?
Anyway, I like the first ones better.

Go with the 2nd ones. I recommend 18s over 19s because there won't be rubbing issues and also you won't lose AS MUCH in performance!
