Default Going to buy wheels soon... Need help

As it says I'm going to buy wheels soon. Going either hyper silver or grey. My problem is my car cam factory woth 19s which I dont want anymore. I cant decide if I want to go 18s or 19s. I know most of yal saw this on facebook. At this point I need some help on wheel choice. Post up pictures sitting on 18s and 20s to help me decide on sizes and let me know the brand. Please.

275/35-20's and 255/35-20's (Sumitomo HTRZII's in this picture, same size in Nitto Motivos now and they fit a bit more flush to the outer lip)

20" better tire choices for the price.

20s fill the wheel wells perfectly for a street tire setup on these cars. Plus good tire choices.

I'd have to agree. Go 20s. I have 19s now and I'll never do 19s again. The tires are too difficult/expensive to find. 20s look GREAT on this car and are much easier and cheaper to find.

I have 19's and love the way they look but I wanted a happy medium for AutoX and daily. Like others have said, I'd definitely go 20's if you're wanting to fill out te wheel well. Tires are definitely less expensive as well.

19x9.5
27/35

I am not a big fan of just looks but some 20s do look amazing. If I had the cash flow id but 18x8 and 18x10 weld rts all around because they look stunning on our cars.

I have 18s on mine and like them a lot better than both sets of 19s I've had. Tires have all been around the same price also. But I'd say go 20s, that will probably be my next step
