i see what your sayin but instead of spendin all that money to replace wheels if anything should happen to em id rather spend the money else where towards the car other than just wheels and i mean what if something happens later on down the road considering the way the economy is to where you have to sale the car i mean after all the time and money spent just to put them on would more than likely go to waist
But then again I understand where you're coming from too; the thing is, you as the owner and enthusiast need to come to terms on what you want your car to do and be and for some that is wild and for others, that is mild. It's all depending on what your heart, bank account, or wife tells you and not necessarily in that order

The Convo Pros are what I was leaning towards myself, but I really like the deep-er-ness (is that a word, lol) to the Fuels, but I don't like the style of the area where it bolts up too much, not sure what you call it, lol, but I am referring to the slits vs the star look, I want to see calipers. Then again, I guess the Pros don't show much neither.

You could run a 19x11 with a 6.25 backspacing. I am not sure on 19" trie size availability- but I'd assume a 305/30-ish would fit with a lil beating(assuming for total diameter)

Bro, if you are looking at cars and the economy in the same sentience then 2+2 will never equal 4. Customizing is a labor of love, you rarely. if ever. get out what you put in. I would rather do something different to the car that makes it stand out and tells everyone that that is my car.
But then again I understand where you're coming from too; the thing is, you as the owner and enthusiast need to come to terms on what you want your car to do and be and for some that is wild and for others, that is mild. It's all depending on what your heart, bank account, or wife tells you and not necessarily in that order
================================
I read this and because of the economy I decided to sell my wheels (below) and get an electric motor from a Prius
installed in my TA this way I can get my money back if I ever decide to sell the car. haha JK
PS if you need to go deep I have a new pair of chromoly offset LCA's that will let your squeeze more room in the rear

Kinesis 18x11.5 running a
BFG 315 30 18 drag radial
could have even went deeper but
I got Baer six pots so the centers are a lot thicker
than say them paper thin centerlines
actually thinking about selling the whole set up,
18" wheels and tires, 9" rearend, ect
to do a mini tub and go with even wider 19"x13" wheels.
Here is one with the center cap
