Dude, it doesn't matter what any of us think.. looking back over the last 8 pages, do you see any that you like? Mags are like clear tail lights.. they are subjective.. put any of them up here and someone will tell you they are awesome and someone else will say they are boring or hideous or whatever... it only matters what you like. Here is what I like:  Found them on ebay down the street for $500 with 2 new tyres on them (18 inch 235) they are e series offset, no adaptors required.. |

 must agree they look good the only thing i reckon is don't go with thin "spoked" mags as you see how small the std discs are, and chrome is a bit doof doof!

A lot of guys seem to be going for 19s nowadays. Is the difference in the price of tyres between 18 and 19 inch wheels all that great? I'd like 19s, but 18s must have cheaper tyres available.
Plus you'd think 18inch would be big enough for a superlow fairmont with no kit or spoiler. Thoughts?
