since most 240 ppl are performance minded, you'll probably NOT find many people running any bigger than 18's at most... as for your questions... you really need to tell us what kind of application you're looking for, that would determine the width you need, and therefore the appropriate sizing/stretching/offset/etc.

I seriously doubt Konig makes wheels in the correct widths/offsets for our cars. You should know better by now... tsk tsk

Eh. I wouldn't buy them. Unless they were the Volk SF line I wouldn't even get 19's though. If you want big then go 18's. But that's my preference.

yeah i'm with these guys.... not that i'm knocking anyone's ideas on any part on a car cuz that's what makes em different, but 19's are too big in my opinion unless you are doing some kinda playa type thing (?). but i will tell you that I have 17's and they look fairly nice on my1.5" drop (tein springs, agx shocks) I may put 18's on the back at some point but i dunno i think that is too big... i like 16's best to be honest. this is all on an rps13.... s14 may look better with 18's ?

OMG??? WTF are you thinking??? Makeing payments on rims? Look it is nice to be able to make ends meet and be able to buy car parts on the side after all RESPONSIBILITIES have been covered. But to get into debt for rims is just straight out .. well I think you get what I am trying to say. I am not some cronie that is just useing your post to mouth off or anything, I speak from experience. With the time you spend on paying off rims motors etc you could have saved and put yourself in a better job/ position to afford such things with out putting yourself at a liable risk. But then again it's your decision. Hopefully you will soon realize that cars are not important enough to RUSH or even score so high on the PRIORITY list of things. Nothing wrong with cars, but don't get all caught up into it. Unless you really and genuinely want to become a pro at it, then hey race life = broke life ( in all respects).

My friend is running 19" Volk Sf Whinning on his care and i gotta say it just looks AMAZING slammed. The 6 piston 14.5" front rotora Brake kit helps the look and brakes insanely

haha, 19" konig's should be named PIZZACUTTERS. they're probably like 7.5" wide knowing konig's wheel styling and most likely a +42 or so offset. not worth wasting your money on.

so what's so CHEAP about the SR swap again?

That Masa car is 18 in front and 19 in rear. IIRC, 18x9 and 19x10.

Here is Hariguchi's style of bliggity blang!: www.326power.com go to the products section and look at the blue PS13. Sorry, they have their images copywritten so i cannot get the properties, nor can i download them. Anyways, the spec on those chrome 5 spokes on teh PS13 and (i think they are the same wheels) on the Yellow FC3S are: 18x9 F and 19x10 R. MAybe 10.5 Offests? I forget. Have to llok it up in one of my mags...
