arospeed RS-GT rims

I am planning on buying some rims very soon. I was looking at the arospeed rs-gt. Should I get 19s or 18s?

Is it a daily driver???

And do you have/or want to spend the money on what 19" tires will cost you in 20k miles?

I went with 17's because mine is a daily driver. I would love 18's, 19's too big for me. 18's look sweet and fit the best on our cars.

GO 18's!

C'mon man you live in Detroit... If you get 19s they'll be bent in a couple of days...lol. That would look tight though. I would say 18s.

215/40/18 is what I have, or 225/35/18. 215/35/18s are too small IMO... I had them on my last car and I hated it.
