Default Buying the Mahdi Ceasar's.....

Ok all I need some good responses. In a week I'm going to buy the Mahdi Caesar TS-5's. They will be 19x8.5 in front and 19.9 in rear. But heres my question, i need a tire and I need to know how much difference in ride quality I'm looking at for the GS 430.
Also, what about a drop, can I do 2.0???? Thanks everyone.

All I have to say is those rims are nice as hell. Do they make them in 20's, cause if they did, I would be the first to jump on them. Tell me, how much are they costing you for the 19's with the tires???

No unfortunately the highest is 19's
they range from 19x7.5 - 19x10

Price:
(2)19x8.5 - $590x2 = $1180
(2)19x9 - $600x2 = $1200
Tires - $1,052 (Pirelli P-Zeros - 245/35/19)

TOTAL: $3432

I don't know about weight, I'll check now, but I heard they are good rims from Japan. They are also 2 piece and are known for their light weight so they can't be too heavy. At least the Silver ones aren't. I'll check now.
