Go aftermarket, if you can afford it. Our cars look SO much nicer with a 18/19 or 19/19 setup vs the stock 17/18 in my opinion. For stylish and lightweight wheels that don't break the bank, start by searching this forum for the following keywords: "forgestar", "tsw nurburgring", "tsw interlagos".

Here is an idea.
The wheels and tires on my car will be for sale very shortly. The car is currently at the shop. I suspect it'll be there at least another couple of weeks if not a bit longer. Once I get it back, I'd be happy to sell these to you.
PM me if you are interested. Sorry for the crappy picture. It was the only one I had on my phone.

why? you upgrading further? that's one of the best value wheels made and it allows you so many more tire choices than stock

just curious

You do not need to run a staggered setup. I've run 18/18 and now run 19/19 without a single issue. Just keep the overall rear wheel/tire diameter more than the front, and your AH/TC system will be happy.

I want a set of CCWs. Agree on the value of these as they look good and are light.

I like the look of 19/19 setup better than 18/18. As for ride quality, there was no noticeable difference between the two
