I think the OP is mainly concerned with differences between OEM 19s vs OEM 18s (ride comfort, mgp-if any). As previously stated, he likes the look of both but thinks the 166s are as good as it gets when it comes to OEM.

Thanks for the replies guys! I appreciate all the feedback!

@jayarras: The comparison might be not equal, but those 2 wheel styles are the ones that I like and just like @Kaizen mentioned, I wanted to get everyones feedback on the differences between ride qality, etc. between just those two specific wheels.

Once again, thanks! I am currently speaking to a seller who is selling Style 166.
