Wheel & Tire Help

Hello all, I am new to this forum and hope someone might help me out. I have a stock Palladium 2009 TL. I would like to change my wheels and tires but need some guidance. This forum seems full of real proud Acura owners so I hope someone can. First any reason I should not go from 18" to 19"? If not which finish do you think would look better, Chrome or Bright Silver Paint? Tire Rack has the painted ones on closeout and they look to be a great deal. Also I am looking at a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 GS-D3 245/40ZR19 they a smoking deal on closeout. Here are pics of the 2 wheels and the Eagles. Opinions are greatly appreciated.

Bremmer Kraft BR05 Bright Silver Paint


ASA GT5 Chrome Plated

Thanks, Jon

You could find lighter wheel options in the same style/finish for the same or less money. 20's look the best on the 4G TL. Those BK's come in 20" but weight 33+lbs. each.

I currently have 19's and they look like mini's; if you live in a place with nice weather year round' I'd get 20's.

If your going to spend the money, go for the 20's. And I would go with the Silver finish over the chrome. Chrome is high maintenance and a little to Ghetto for my tastes.
And for tires, I have had good experience woth Toyos and Yokahamas.
