Glad you got to save a bunch. rock auto is really a gem for us up in Canada, they really make so many options I wouldn't even bother with affordable... I've noticed a few mechanic shops order from them regularly up here too you can't miss the distinctive purple packing tape

I have searched online for some new wheels for my white sedan. I have picked 3 that I like. What do you guys think about these on a white sedan? Which one would you guys pick? I don't know alot about wheels so any info would be appreciated. I'm going with 19" Vertini Dynasty Slate Gray
Rohana RC10 Black Machined With Chrome Lip
TSW Mirabeau Gloss Black

I like all 3 with a leaning toward the TSW. In order:
1) TSW
2) Vertini (no gold rivets)
2) Rohana

They're all comparably priced. I would look at which one gives you the offset closest to what you want/need and which is the lightest. You have to decide which style you like. You are the one paying and having to look at it but I would use the info I mentioned to finalize my choice. I do think I saw a coupe on here with that Rohana wheel though

Swen, I'd take a look at these that Ape Factory is running on his coupe, they are higher quality, lower weight, stronger, and the cost is a bargain. The 19x9.5 +45 will work well on your sedan w/ 255/40/19 tires~

Yeah the tsw would probably be my first choice as well, but since I don't have much experience with wheels I thought I'd rather ask first before buying some wheels that might be too heavy or not of good quality

Those wheels sure are a bargain compared to others, but they have a bit too many spokes for my taste. Maybe i can find a pic somewhere of these on a sedan and change my mind. Thanks for the suggestion though

Vertini Dynasty Slate Gray make my pants tingle. The others, however, I've seen around a bunch, so they're not as pretty in my eyes.
Another part of me wants to slap myself for not saying TSW.

has anyone ever messed around with putting (for example) audi S4 rims on their G's? ive read a few threads about the different sizes for G's but sounds like 19's are okay and a car doesnt need to be lowered to supplement it for the most part...correct me if wrong?

Well the bolt pattern is not the same. A spacer adapter would probably work though.

You can put wheels from other manufacturers, you will just need adapters since they have different bolt patterns. A lot of people do this with BMW wheels.

My Hawk HPS pads (on my second set for the front now) came with the shims so you shouldn't need those. Also, I used the OEM banjo bolts with my Racing Brake braided lines. I'd assume if the braided lines you purchased needed different banjo bolts then they would come with them.

Absolutely love the Rohana style wheel on a G sedan so that would definitely be my first choice. Followed by the Vertini. Not much of a fan of the TSW so I probably wouldn't even consider those.

1) Rohana
2) Vertini (no gold rivets)
2) TSW
