I know nothing about rims. I tried looking on the aftermarket wheels thread but I really don't understand the terminology being thrown around (offset, staggered, TPS, wheel gap, etc). Can someone please explain these things to me, and anything else that I need to know if I get a set of rims (lowering, tires, 2 piece vs 3 piece, etc)

All I know is that I want a set of 19" PIAA Super Rozza in Hyper black. How would I go about finding the right size 19" and all the other stuff needed?

If you want to learn more about offsets, plus sizing tirerack has all the information you can possibly imagine. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/tech/index.jsp

You can get the PIAA rims in +40mm offset with 8.5 width in the front and 9.5 width for the rear. That will give you a decent flush look.

Thanks for the link, I'll definitely be studying it.

Lets say I get 19" PIAA Super Rozza (8.5" front, 9.5" back), would it look weird if I don't lower the car (keep stock springs)?

These rims are not compatible with the Tire Pressure Monitor. I don't really need TPS do I? It just tells me if the pressure is low right?

TPM its important cause you dont have to rely on your vision everytime you get in your car and its a safety feature why avoid it.

I wouldn't have a car without it if the wife will be driving. She already ruined a a Toyo T1-R on her Scion because she drove off with it flat as a pancake and destroyed any chance of ever repairing the tire. Seriously, TPMS is great for most of the people. Do you honestly do a walk around inspection every time you intend to drive somewhere? I can tell you, I'm pretty **** about quite a few things, but I sure don't do a full preflight inspection on my car every time. TPMS is GREAT because I'll know before I put the shifter in R that a tire is low.
