Good looking Rims?
I'm wanting a 19/19 setup on my Car. I absolutely love the ccw sp500's, but I wanna see what else is out there and what some of you guys are running. I would like to have the rims black as well.

Just as a heads up... if you choose CCW.
Go with the 1" front lip and 2" rear lip if you plan big brakes.
Otherwise stay with the original 2" front lip and 3" rear lip.
Good luck with your decision !

Whats the width on the rims you're running Toque? And in a package deal, assuming I choose the SP500's, What can I expect to pay, with some good Sticky tires? I'm putting an A&A V3 kit on next week. Got a feelin I'm gonna need a good set.

I don't plan on a big brake package but thank you for the info man Whats the width on the rims you're running Toque? And in a package deal, assuming I choose the SP500's, What can I expect to pay, with some good Sticky tires? I'm putting an A&A V3 kit on next week. Got a feelin I'm gonna need a good set.

Rear - 19x11 - 305/30/19.
At my horse power level I'm VERY impressed with my Bridgestone RE-11 tires. Stickiest tire I have had on my car to date.
Keep in mind with a blower your traction will be very limited.
You may want to consider 18" rears with a real sticky tire.
