RJ Legend 18's or 19"

I am considering RJ Legends,

These are the factors for me-

Cost vs looks
Performace vs look (i know the weight of 18 is not much less that 19)

over all......can you really tell the difference between the sizes?

does anyone have pics of 18s on

I use the stocks in the winter, the potholes here are horrible. I don't want to bend them up. I've been thinking about getting the Raven Inspyres.

I didn't like the GT on the NBP- just looked out of sorts. This pic is from NOPI Atlanta. Courtesy of being in the RJ booth.

Rondy was saying that it would not be very hard to get a good paint shop to make that a different color.

t0talacuratl and dragonlord: what tire size are you running with your 18s? I really like the look of both of your rides!!

I'm not sure which look I prefer, 18s or 19s. Yes, I know everyone says 19s!! I plan to drop my car and both stances look great!

I have a WDP and I'm trying to deciding b/w the Legend Liquid Graphite and the GT. Leaning towards the Graphite.

Tough decision, but I really like the Legends either way.

Actually I got those wheels from dragonlord. He was running 245/40-18's. I have 235/40-18's. IMHO, I thought the 235's have a lower profile than the 245's. The 19's look great, but 18's are a great compromise between performance and ride.
Plus I hear more issues with 19 wheels than the 18's. Dragonlord had these wheels for a year, and they still look brand new. Best upgrade I ever made!

Thanks for the compliment! I'm really enjoying them!
