Aftermarket wheels and tires

I have an AWD ordered with sport 19s. Considering dropping the 19s and taking delivery with the 18s, then buying aftermarket wheels, and selling the originals.

Two questions:

1- is there a market for the original 18s? Will anyone buy them, and how much can I expect to get for them?

2- recommended replacement set. Tire Racks system suggests a staggered set of turbine wheels 8.5/10, with 235/265s on them. I want a nice looking set that fits well, and isn't a reduculous weight increases/range loss.

Any help would be appreciated. Especially if you have done any of this, and if you have pictures.

Thanks!

I’m kinda in the same boat. I actually prefer 19” instead of the 20”, but the 3PD model doesn’t give u the option for 19”. I’m not too fond of the 18” aero. I wouldn’t mind considering the 19” u may get? When is your delivery and what are the tires that come with the 19”?
