i voted 19s. i've got 20s, but 19s would be just right. problem i see is TIRES. seems like there are numerous 20 inch options, but few 19 inch options. just my opinion.

Falken Tire makes quite a few options for 19's. Check out thier FK-452 model. I think that is what CainMotorSports has on his ride. His car is the 2nd black one with the 19's (sick ride)...

If I get 19's I would run 255/40/19 Front and 275/40/19 Rear...
They also have a 285/35/19 (Rear) but it is slightly smaller than the 255/40/09. I want the back tire to be slightly larger in diameter and wider.

I'd go with a 19/20" setup if you can find one that you like. I think 20" fits great for the rear but a tad big for the front, and 19s are great up front but a little small for the rear. I was going to get 20s but couldn't find a tire I was happy with(275 is too narrow, 305 or 315 is too expensive and anything with a 30sidewall looks stupid)

Go with 20's I think they are a good fit and make the stance of the car look good too. I would have to agree that 19 are an odd size and you will pay more for the tires, and will be limited on selection.

I just put 20's on yesterday (20X8.5 and 20X10), I was going to run 19/20 but, your wheel selection may be limited. Seems thatmost wheels are only available in 18 and 20". I went with 255/40/20 fronts and 275/40/20 rears.
