Default Wheel Upgraded Opinions Needed

I am seriously considering upgrading my wheels,unfortunately no one makes a 19"wheel i like,so that $995 on the msrp was a waste.. bleh
My 2011 is Black

Well i can't decide between chrome or chrome trim with black spokes.I am assuming i will have to upgrade to 20's,don't really want to go down to 18's.

Here is what i am looking at


http://www.cruizinconceptswholesale....NITROUSTOYOPKG


or these




http://www.cruizinconceptswholesale....KNITROUSWTOYOS

These are cheaper and i like them as well,i like the deeper chrome dish ring,so they are 3rd on my list




http://www.cruizinconceptswholesale....HEELANDTIREPKG

I haven't called yet to see what else i would have to buy with them like new TMPS,just starting my adventure

Also do you think i could sell the tires/wheels currently on my car and if so how much should i shoot for,it is the 19" painted wheel tire upgrade option.
Thanks

20's with the current, stock appearance is an overkill. Don't do it unless you plan on adding some type of aggressive body kit. (Speaking from experience, here)

What you are looking at is so similar to what you have.....are you just simply wanting bigger wheels?

No.i'd go with 19's if i could find them,sure not happy about having to buy new tires because i can't find wheels in a style i like.I hate the gray painted wheels,i want something with a little style.
I don't think what i am looking at looks anything like the cheap looking gray painted wheels on my car.

I thought I was looking at chrome bullitts......

Well good luck with your search. I have 19's on my white one, and I can't wait to replace the tires on them, lol. I've never been a big Goodyear fan.

Well after doing some research,i think i am just going to drop down to 18" pkg.I was afraid they would look tiny in the wheel wells but after seeing a few with the standard 18's i feel a little better and my wallet will feel a whole lot better!
Still have to choose a style

how about going with a custom build billet wheel? Stick with the size wheel you have now and re-use your current tires....just a thought/option for you bro

I would go with the chrome nitrous, staggered 20in wheels. You can't go wrong.
