Default Which wheels to get?

Hey guys,

I'm just wondering what wheels you like better. I'm thinking of getting the 18" Factory optioned Lexus Tourmaline wheels from the 3GS:





Or these 19" wheels:

Which are a copy/rebranded Miro 111's I think... (you can't get Miro 111's in Australia). I'd love to get a set of LC818's but you can't buy them here and these look like the closest thing

The price is the same. What one do you guys like more?

Ps. This is for a dark grey (SGM) 2IS.

As long as you're lowered you can get 19's. Otherwise get 18's

I don't think I'm going to lower it though

Do you think I should get the 19" style in 18" then?

EDIT: Seller just told me that the 18" is only $90 cheaper than the 19". What size do you think I should get for stock suspension?
