Our roads aren't too bad up here since it dosen't snow or rain all that much. I'm about to go w/ 18" BBS CH's but I'm tempted to go w/ the 19"s for maximum *bling bling* factor. Should I be concerned w/ any rubbing/ride quality issues if I go w/ the 19"s? Help me decide!

remember to think about the cost of tire replacement. 19's will set you back more every time.
