Ahhhh after weeks of looking I finally ordered my rims... They are Speed Star Wheel D5R's in bronze with a chrome lip. 19x8.5 ET 30 in the front w/ 2" lip and 19x10 ET 37 w/ 3" lip in the rear. Question: What would be the most appropriate size for tires, and what's a low-priced brand you would all suggest? Will I have ANY fitment issues with these in this size? My car is an Ivory Pearl so I'm hoping they look hot! Tire Rack had them at $469 a rim, but got the last set in the States on clearance for $239 each. Opinions?

Any recommendations on an online vendor and brand to use for an affordable price!? How many miles you guys getting on a 19" setup with good tires?
Lets hope so, seeing as they have already been ordered!

I almost bought those rims. I think that is a great choice. Be sure to post pics as soon as you have them on.
Will do. 2 come Friday, the other two next Tuesday.. Should have them on by the end of next week! Not sure if I'm going to get coilovers/springs and drop it, will wait and see how it rides first
