Default New Wheels

I've seen some 19" Ford Replica wheels on ebay, which got me thinking.
Are the copies of these types of Ford wheels any good or are they just cheap rubbish?

Click Here

Also I've pretty much convinced myself that 19's are the way to go. And seeing as I would hate to fork out $2500+ for some wheels as I've seen quoted, would it be cheaper to buy the rims myself and then get a tyre fitter to fit tyres and the wheels onto the car?
What costs can you expect on purchasing 4 new tyres to fit the 19's?

If it's any help I live in WA.

Cheers,
Chris

decent set of rubber for 19's will cost around 250 - 300 mark. if you fit the tyres yourself, it will end up being that little bit cheaper.

I just picked up a set of 19's with rubber, new from beaurepairs for less then 2k. Just shop around, look for specials until you find something you like. To get a set of tyres fitted your looking around 250+per wheel
