exexpat, do you know where i could find some reps? ive been looking for some of the 18" stock reps but have not been able to find any.

The wheels i have come across so far with the size and fitment i have attached in a word doc. May be helpful to someone else too if looking for wheels. If you guys could maybe help me pick out a couple to choose from would make my decision a little easier. i know its all personal preference, but at this point, i just cant decide what i really want.

Thanks in advance
The staggered 19s here are hot:

The 18" mesh aren't too bad.

jerryswheels.com has the best prices hands-down. Arubas or Melbournes for $159 each! http://jerryswheels.com/7673.html

I would just call them. Have never purchased from them myself, but I would (given they are way cheaper than anyone else). Melbournes are a good choice. You will want to call about lugs for those anyway, since they take a proprietary BBS lugnut in factory form. You may need those.

The first ones are hideous, the second ones aren't bad.

Correction. The Jaguar lugnut is the proprietary item - not a BBS discovery specific to those wheels. You'll just need to confirm they take the wierd Jaguar lugnut.
