I have the 18" Anniversary wheels and I love them. I would venture to say that they give a more sophisticated look to the sedans where as the coupe 19's give a more sporty look.

HR 15mm wheel spacers
Same setup as me basically, minus the tires. Did you order the part number that I had in my thread or did you go with coupe wheels? Remember the coupe and the convertible run the same style of wheel, however the offset for the rears are quite different.

sweet man, you're on the right track. If your sedan wheels sell quickly, you may have me giving more thought to these anniversary 19s...I had been looking for a spare set of sedan 18s to run 8.5s all around...
You probably won't need the spacers with those wheels though. They will already be more than 1 inch more aggressive than factory 18s...should sit pretty flush. Unless you ordered coupe fronts and not rears, did ya?
Hopefully Ill have the new setup installed this weekend
Make sure the part number is that of the coupe, the convertibles run a +30 offset and the coupe runs a +45. If you went with the convertible part number, like I have, you won't need the spacers at all. If you purchased your wheels on eBay, make sure the seller listed the offset, as a lot of them just say the wheels will fit all models the same.
Maybe I'll jump to 19s later. Didn't want to have to get new tires just yet
Maybe next year!
I figured tires had a part in that decision. I just got lucky and saw the Potenza S04's for 181 each for 245/40/19 and then got discount tire to match tire rack for me. Immediately noticed a difference in handling without the drop or sway installed.

Yeah I've got the Hankook V4 tires on now (came with the car when I bought it used last year). I think I've got about another year left on them, then it might be time to change.
I'll look into 19s at that point, but I'm not sure what immediate benefits that has besides aesthetics tbh.
I figured 18s would be lighter as well, which is always a good thing.
