18's get my vote.
1. cost of tires at time of replacement due to wear and tear or damage.
2. though not by much, so i've heard, performance factor in multiple aspects due to added weight (unless you're just gonna cruise slow n low in the coupe
and if that's the case you might as well jump up to some 20's to really fill in the gaps).
3. in my honest OPINION, the stock 19's look too busy, complicated, etc. I don't know, too many openings, spokes, shapes, etc. I don't feel they flow with the sleek, clean, & simplified silouette of the coupe at all. Again though, just my OPINION. (I know, I know... i'm still gonna get flamed for this statement, but oh well, fukc-it. Just want to share my honest thoughts on this with a fellow member who's asking.)
But like ShanesG said, "whichever one you pick... you wont lose."

damn thats low...hows the ride on the JIC? stiff or comfy?
to your question:
19s!!!! the right size, u wont be disappointed. some spacers. paint them black or flat black and call it a day, give it the aggressive look.
the 18s are borderline. with being that tucked n low. the 19s would be perfect..
20s if your just ballin/chillin status...

Hey guys,
I still dont know which would look better on my car. I love the stock 19s, ive been wanting to get them for sometime, but after really cleaning my car and cleaning and making the stock 18s look good, i dont know which would look better.
Thats where you guys come in, help me decide. Which do you guys think would look better?
And does anyone have pics of black slammed coupes on the stock 19s?
Here's my 18s on my coupe.

slammed on stocks! i haven't seen that since my days of my maxima. i think it actually looks good! however, from a performance standpoint i think the stock 19s are really heavy compared to the 17" Z33 base wheels i use for my winter tire setup. are the 18s any better? pricewise the 18s have A LOT more tire choices and they're generally cheaper. 18s FTW.
