are you going to be racing? If so I wouldn't use a 19" rim. I would use a 16" or 17". If your gonna be racing, you'll want more of a tire to grip with hence the smaller rim. But for looks, I don't see why you couldn't use a 19" rim. Should fit fine as long as it is 5X110.

I'm going to buy oz ultralagerras my streets aren't to bad I would stay with 18's but I am also getting coil overs soon so i wanna go low and thinking 19's would look great plus i would be dropping like 7 pounds a corner with the rim change.
