quick poll.... ev-s, ev-r, or evo5?

i'm gonna get one of these in 18's. was thinking 19's but just too $$$. not too many moded maxes in my area, so don't care too much about "everyone" having the evo5's, just want the best looking wheel. what you guys think? anyone seen the new mille miglia's yet?

go 19 if you have the $$$ and dont have to worry about crackin a wheel drivin on crappy roads and stuff, i would personally rather have 18s just for safety reasons...19s would be a lot easier to damage, or at least around here they would (potholes and just plain ****ty roads).

I had evo5s on my old car. 97 Catera. Boy am I glad thats my old car. But anyway those are the sickest looking rims when put on mosy cars. I just got my 02 GLE and I am probably going to get new evo5s when i can afford to get a drop at the same time. Those rims are so clean(and easy to clean) and will make your car look great(sporty) without being to flashy IMO. The other choices are so similar that I dont think you can go wrong.

yeah, the roads in southwestern ct really suck, so 18's are probably the way to go. any of you know anything about kumho ecsta supra tires? they're pretty cheap, wondering if it's a get what you pay for kind of deal. also, will the 18's fill up the wheel well nicely? thx!

i'm actually just going to use the wheels in the summer, switch back to the crappy stock 16's in the winter. i can pick up 18's with kumhos for less than $1500 on tirerack. Otherwise, I'm talkin' in the range of $1900!!!
