So I'm thinking about wheels again (almost just bought 18" Pilot Sport PS2s for my stocks, glad I didn't)

I think I'm just going to get 19"s. I've narrowed it down to two I think. I would also like anyone's ideas on similar style wheels out there as well. I don't really like the big lips, or bolts, or polished lip black face. I like all black wheels. Styles like these two, also my 124's, 166's, etc...

Also if I buy wheels, I'm going to probably have to sacrifice somewhat on my tires so I was thinking about the General UHP's any thoughts on those as well?

Here they are:

I really the Breyton Race GTS, in the Matte Black/gunmetal finish... 19's look bigger in this style wheel because there's no lip. Good luck..!
Check out member Kali4nia's car. I think he has the Breyton's in 19's also! they look SICK!

Not much of a difference with those two wheels, they could have been separated at birth! Good Luck with your decision!

Nice....I'd go with the breyton. I think the sharper bend on the spoke gives it a better look.
