I'm looking for some pics of lowered A/Cs with 18s and/or 19s, just for viewing purposes. My A/C is lowered with S-Techs so I'm looking for a Tein/Eibach drop, but coilovers are fine too.

I'm looking to get some BBS LM replica wheels and I can't decide between 18x9.5 or 19x9.5. I'd like to get the 18s just to save some money on tires, but from what I've seen, usually the 19s look a little bit better (less wheel gap).

Thanks! :)

Not true. It may appear this way to your eye, but if you are running a proper set-up your overall diameter should still come within 3% of the stock 26.3". Gap size between top of tire and fender should be very close to equal. Offset of the wheel may also make this appear to be different.
