Might want to post a little information about your car, especially the color, etc. Maybe even post a picture.

People here on Azine are going to recommend a million different wheels to you. It depends on what look you like. Your budget also plays a big part. Look around and do some research. The people here on Azine helped me a lot wiht my wheel search.

Best thing to do is go with RJ Rims. They fit our cars perfectly and you dont have to worry about any of those issues, and they look amazing!! Check my avatar and click here for more pics

I got the RJ Inspyre Raven Blacks but he makes many other different types of Rims as well.

I don't like 20's on the TL 19's are perfect. I went with 18 cuz roads here suck and I want a stiffer suspension too so I figured 18 was a good compromise. Oh and I went with ledgends L/G and love love love them.

we have horrible roads in new orleans, especially where my school is at but i've had my new wheels on for awhile now and havent noticed no dents or eggs in my tires. wheels were still great until last night when the valet curbed one of the rear wheels. i could hear it 5000 ft away.

i think i spent around 2000 for the wheels and tires. maybe a lil less. staggered 19's will be nice, but you're going to need to drop it. Its gonna make the car look sick.

19's and drop it? wow i thought putting 19's or 20's will make it look good with no needs of dropping it. what will be the specs for the staggered wheels? 19X8.5 FRONT and 19X9.5 REAR ?
