Default 19" Wheel help...

I'm looking for a set of 19s to go on the new RS when it arrives.

The first set I could think of was Compomotives like this...



Then i noticed they don't come in anything bigger than 18's.

I've also considdered BBS CHs...


They do look good, but i'm not 10% sure. Plus they're quite pricey.

I was wondering if you guys could point me in the direction of some nice (good quality) wheels that are available in 19s and in Ford Fitment.

My bro used to have CHs on his LCR, and yeah they were great.

The reason the wheels will be changed cos the original multispokes are going to be a bugger to keep clean, so i'm wanting to stay away from another set of multispokes.

Also really keen on the white on white, so i think i'll be staying away from black wheels.
I do kinda like the contrast of the black and white though.

I've also noticed that black wheels look smaller than silver/white wheels, so i think i'll be sticking with white.
