I love the look of the phoon 19's but assume there's no chance they'd fit/work. I want to do something with the rims, but don't really like many of the aftermarket options.

I was looking at FPV 19"s for ours and came up against a wall everytime.The next problem will be the tyres to fit the rims with the right load rating.This is why my wheels are still stock. I think mine would look awsome with the 19" F6 twisty rims.

I want to get the 19's ( load rating is for tyres, not wheels....) but there is a bit of hype on the forums for finding load rated tyres to suit. Havnt done the sums yet, just want to see what looks good.
