Here are mine. CCW Classic 17x9 & 17x11.

I think that for impact bumper cars like our 930's, 18's are big enough. 17's look the best, proportionally. The car was designed using 15's, way back in the 70's.

Please recommend cheap wheels

I agree. 19's leave something to be desired in looks department. After all, what are you saying; the car compliments the wheels or the other way around? Sorry, just my $0.02.
If you do decide to use 19's, you should revalve your shocks. You are dramatically altering your dampening by removing a big chunk of compliance going from 16" to 19".

Fikse FM-5's 17x8, 17x10.

I like the RH 3.6. Maybe one day I'll pick up a set. If I do, they'll be 11 rear and 8.5 front.

18" HRE 540R's. I don't know how wide they are to be honest, I guess I should measure them. 235's up front and 285's on the back.
