Mostly because they are second hand lol 19' would have been my absolute limit. tire price, comfort are also factors to why I did not hesitate to buy them used in 18'.

that's one reason

It was a must in my decision...either concave or with a good lip. I would not have bought them if they were not concave.

Emotion CR Kai are not available in 19"

CR Kiwami on the other hand are available in 19", but they are slightly different, and not available in gunmetal.

I have had Kais on mine in the past. 18x9.5 +20, pretty ace fitment, but not aggressive enough in the rear for me, would stagger them +20 front and +12 rear.
