Are you going for purely looks or do you have performance in mind as well?

19s if you're ballin since the tires are too damn expensive.
20s if you're on a budget. tires are cheap.

i dont agree on the 18s sorry.

18s are for pure performance aka tracking the car. tires are cheap and if you want a very sporty look then go for it.

19s are a compromise between the looks of 20s and the sportiness of 18s. tires are the most expensive for them because of the odd size but they offer more rim protection than 20s so its not really a bad thing.

20s if you are going for a show/cruising look. i love 20s on our cars but if you have bad roads around you, i wouldnt advise it.

that wasn't from the tire prices Chad.... strap on ring a bell? Next time I put rims on they will be 20's for the look, I have 19's now, tires are pricey for sure.
