I don't blame you. I personally think 18" is a perfect size for the coupe, not the 19s, though they are beautiful rims. There is no harm in doing so, especially if you get lighter rims. Reduce your unpsrung weight. I would like to have 18's on my sedan. The 18's off a 2nd series G sedan sport.

I'm sure people would be willing to buy your rims! ...but the cost difference between 18s and 19s is relativly small. Your OEM tires will last around 12-15k and aftermarket tires can last 15-20k...so how much money are you really saving?

Well I work at a dealer so I just get a wee bit over dealer price... but I guess Tirerack and Discount tire and I'm sure guys here will tell you where they got their tires at. Certainly not walmart. Unless its for your lawnmower.
