Default Need input rims+ body kit

I was rear ended on commute to work last week..
the person who hit me was doing about 40++ ??
but I was at a stand still..
Well my insurance Compy est. about $3,800 ++ in damages
So I'm planning to step my SC300 w/ a vertex kit and new paint job
about 3 weeks ago I ordered some new rims
frt 19x8.5 & r 19x9.5 Volk Racing GT-C

I wasn't planng to really get a body kit at the time..
I think now the 19" might be to small
maybe I should have gottin 20"s GT-C

So can anyone send me Pics
of a SC w/ body kit and 19" & 20"
but give me your wheel/ tire specs

thanks Sam

19" is big enough...trust me. Personally, I think the SC looks best in 18 inchers.

Either that knockoff is even worse than I thought or what is with your door molding?
