Kinda flush. Fitment is something. ADM as F*ck.

This is true. What size are those wheels ?

Currently looking at a set of TSW Interlagos 19x8 +45 wheels, the TWS australia website quotes these at $440 a wheel so not ridiculously expensive

Opinions? I'm pretty keen on them tbh. Was looking at the 20's aswell but I think they would look too big.

Nice looking wheel. How much do those TSW's weigh?

would not have a clue. For me, weight isn't a massive factor in decision for choosing wheels

Nick, weight is worth considering when you take into account the effect on handling, acceleration and fuel consumption. That being said, they don't look like a heavy wheel. The 19s would look good, 20's are just verging on silly.

Yeah i think they are fairly light weight anyway. Well at this point the 20's cost wise are silly anyways so if I do end up going down this route I will be getting the 19's, looking at probably getting either Nitto NT555 235/35/19 or the Nitto NT05 235/35/19
