another wheel/tire question
I have a 99 pewter coupe with the wagon wheels...I plan on ordering the CCW 505's in a couple weeks. I'm not sure what size to get, 18's or 19's all around or the 18/19 combo. Secondly they have the wheels with the sensors or without, and finally I will need new rubber, any suggestions? Thanx in advance

I would go 18/19 and then you could put on the new C6 runflats - if you want a runflat tire. That's the route I took, except with iForged wheels. The C6 tires are a HUGE improvement over the C5 runflats.
EDIT: I also went without the tire sensors. I figured I had some security in going with the runflats. Besides, with the iForged wheels, I heard that mounting the sensors was a PITA. So far so good.
