If your looking at 19" rims I would stick to 19x8 or 19x7.5 and try to get an offset as close as possible to that of the current wheel otherwise it's likely to stick out past the guard and will probably cause rubbing issues, especially if your going to lower it.
With regards to insurance, I went with AAMI simply because they were the cheapest for ppl who haven't had their licence long enough to earn a rating 1, but this probably varies state to state.
oo thanks for the help... yeah i was planning to get aami at first but it said something about not being able to cover for cars with aftermarket bodykits, which I have...
oh and to JaCe
thanks for the welcome ^^

I found NRMA the cheapest option for me, so definately make sure you shop around.
If the dealer is supplying the car with the bodykit, you may get away with calling it a dealer fitted accessory. Might be worth looking into.
Oh and BTW welcome

Got my lancer finally might post photos later...
But yeah lancer didnt turn out as i thought.
The RSV body kit is not the XDC body kit anymore...
Its the Talon VRX body kit.
Still looks hot though so I dont really mind, and I got all these other extras when I picked up the car so it was all good. ^^
After just picking my lancer up from suttons drove to taleb and got my new wheels. So only had a special moment of 10 mins with the new lancer ES stock steellies then poof traded em off =p
