What size rims??/

I'm looking to get some rims on my 08 Type S but im indecisive about what size. I want to get some rims that will not sacrifice the smooth ride. Any suggestions???

well if as you go higher in size, the more ride integrity you lose...
IMO 19's look the best. With a drop
but smooth ride means stay 17's or 18's

19's no doubt..just get some nice rubber on those puppies, people always say "I was going for comfort with the 18s but regret not getting the 19s" so don't regret and just do it right.

and yes 20s are too big 99% of the time

18" ~ 19" is the best size .. but some people go 20" cuz tires are cheaper ... don't know why.

stay around 9.0 width with +38 ~ +40 offset. don't get too low
