should i get 18s or 19s?? hard choice

hey guys i need to decide on a set of wheel soon and im not sure if i should get 18s or 19s..

18s

PROS: more sidewall (lower risk for rim), lighter, cheaper

CONS: not as big as 19s


19s

PROS: looks great

CONS: less sidewall (higher risk for wheel), heavy, lot of $$$$


What should i do??


oh btw, if you know a set of 18s that look bigger than they really are can u post a link/pic plz! thanks a lot!

I have 19's and love them. Well, let me re-phrase that. I love the way they look. The car rides like sh*t! I would say go with 18's. Just my .02

I think the SSR GT3 look better with the bolt pattern in them. But just my 2 cents
