You didn't mention why you want to upgrade..

Going one up is not bad, but there are trade offs.. FC is one ; comfort another - pros would be a tad better dry roadholding..
If I were you, l'd look at lite, after market rims of the same size.. 18inchers are decent enough already, l shudder to think how much a 19inch tyre would cost when time to change it..

i thought going up one inch would give better grip and i like dark rims. my car is silver and the silver alloy rim does not look that good.
and i love the mazda 6 gun metal rim (dark colored rim).
this is the reason why i wanted to change.
if i buy an non oem rim i wont sell off my original oem rims so i think need to fork out more for the lighter non oem rims
i thought pushing my oem and getting another oem rim in return.
my tyres are still new (10 months old car only)

but i am confuse whether is it worth it or not. thats y wanted ask what you guys think about it
