I haven't seen any 2005s with the coupe wheels but there are some 2003 and 2004 sedans with the coupe wheels in the gallery section.

I don't understand why sedan owners want the coupe 19" wheels?

1) The diameter is different.

2) The coupe wheels are staggered, the sedan ones are not

3) Basicly the sedan 18"s look just like coupe 19"s.

For the very same reason that sedan and coupe owners sport larger and/or wider aftermarket shoes . . . They want a change. I think in this case, the OEM coupe 19"ers afford a less expensive alternative.

Not to mention, 19s are forged and 18s are cast. Thus, 19s are considered better value compared to the 18s.

Ok, larger as in 18-->19" I understand, but the coupe 19"s are not much wider. Stock 18" sedan front tires are actually wider than coupe tires. 19" are forged but due to the stupendous heavy tires they won't offer much performance improvement over the stock in terms of overall weight. The stock tires on the coupe 19" (or even 18") are by far better than stock sedan tires though.




I stare at these everyday, and they look pretty much the same to me.
