Here's pics of the 18s. There's a fair amount of brake dust on these, surprising because the car had 33 miles when I drove it. I didn't get a chance to see the 19s in person, but I did think the 18s looked better than I expected in person. I've always assumed that I would get the 19s w/o CCBs, but after seeing the 18s, the 19s aren't so automatic. With the 18s, you'll get cheaper tires, perhaps better ride quality, reduced rotational inertia resulting in perhaps better acceleration and braking (assuming standard brakes), and you'll have $1200 towards other options (or the set of wheels you'd rather get).
While I do think the 19s are lookers, the 18s will make the stock brakes look more substantial as well.
