Welcome Vinny, personally I am sticking with 19's - 20's means a little too low a side wall for my tastes. For help on the decision I would contact one of our respected vendors Trinity (member Nerweezy), Acute Performance (acuteperformance), or Eurorev (john@eurorev). That way you'll get good looking wheels guaranteed to fit your car. Good luck

Go with 19's and don't lower your car. You won't have any problems.

Check out my 19" M Parallel replicas that I have for sale.

my wife drive it sometime and Socal road are not that great, so 25 series might be to low where you might damaged your rims when you hit a bump or pot hole
