What kind of qheels are you looking for? What kind do you like? Mesh? Spokes? High dollar, cheap? VIP? Deep Dish? Step Lip?

Try and looking around and see what everyone else has and find a taste that you might like. That'll help us help you.

I definitely like a dish (polished lip perhaps) and prefer mesh over star pattern.

One thing is for sure, for the rear, I would like to stuff the widest tire I can back there so offset will be crucial.

I will look into those. At first glance, I don't really see any dished wheels available however.

Although they are not 19's, I really like BBS RKs in an 18x8.5 and 18x10 variety, but those are discontinued. I had these wheels on a Mustang years ago.

These are 20s in the pic but CV1s are available in 19"..They fit the lines of the 2GS perfectly IMO...

Tony has 084s and they are available in 19" as well

Those are our wonderful Vossen CV1s they are 20x8.5 and 20x10 to give you an incredible concave look matches class and sport with a stainless steel lip. Great choice.

There are Vossen Dealers in our vendor area who sell our wheels or you can PM me for more info. Thanks
