Most "here" that have 18's have gone to 19's or 20's. I had 18's and now on 19's. Check out my journal. Between 19' and 20's is up to you. I prefer 19's due to lowering, tire sizes, and weight. Plus to me there more particul.

By the way I see your in GA. Check out this link for a big meet in the next couple weeks. Unless you already have.

It depends on what you want to do with the car. I have the 19" sport wheels since that's when came on my car. But if I was buying new wheels, I'd buy 18" wheels for the track. If I was getting rims for the street, I'd probably get 19s again. 20s really limit you if you're at all specific about the tires you buy.

Wheels are wheels, get something that look good. Real race cars get rims that clear their calipers, not to look cool.

Check these out in the link below. Just like mine but a liitle different. Same company even. They come in 18' or 19's. But the 18's offer the better widths and light weight. Great price. I would off gotten these to save a little but I wanted 19's and the widths where not good enough.
