I have square 19x10s.....just sayin.

I thought about the 19s, and they certainly do look much better on the 10+ cars, but on the 05-09s I kind of think the 19s are pushing too big almost. I'm torn because I really do like them, but then I like the slightly larger side wall running the 18s. In the end, the slight weight reduction, fairly large cost reduction, and overall look is pushing me to the 18s. Hell, they'd still be an upgrade over my 17" stockers. Planning to go 2010 Machined GT500s.

Speaking of big tires, I spent my Sunday in Uwharrie for the first time this season. I know a couple of you are Jeep fans too. I don't have one myself but a bunch of friends do and I enjoy riding and taking pics:
