Not at all, Thanks for asking 
Seriously though, I think 19's are pushing it from a performance perspective. If you want the pimpstar, why not get a different car?
With that said, it's you car and your money, so do what makes you happy. Screw us random internet tough guys.
Make sure to poast the pics if you do get them, so we can praise/tease as needed.

I didn't zoom in to see the cover. If they look nice in your opinion I say go for it. I like 18/19 and a sport look with no chrome, unless it's a polished lip or something similar.

absolutely yuk.
will turn the car from looking and performing like a sports car sedan into looking like a chrysler 300 that G-Unit owns and will hurt the overall performance, and for sure make it look less like a performance oriented machine.
something that is similar to that wheel is the foose speedster...I dont like those either.
Why not get something classy or sporty?? Why resort to these cheaply made, cheaply cut ghetto looking wheel that really belong on hoopties.

lol, ouch, mostly because classy and sporty are either ccm or asanti that i dont really like the looks of and are between 2500 to 4000.00. i dont want to spend anywhere near that much. i have a extra set of wheels and tires i want to sell, i will use that cash towards these wheels that imo look really nice. and everyone already knows its fast by listening to exhaust. im hopeing the 20s wont kill acceleration by too much, thats actually the only reason i almost talk myself out of it. but i do like the lip these have,

to each his own, but imo they will look cheap and i guarantee the chrome will start to blister and oxidize the first year. the fact that they are 20's dont bother me at all cuz some look good but there is a reason they are only 1600 with tires. for them to make any money they pay the cheapest labor and cheapest materials. CCW, hre etc are top of the line and custom make then with the best materials. if you spend 1600 plan on eiother putting your stockers back on or forking out the momney for real wheels a year from now cuz they wont last. just my opinion, try not to think of how it will look only now, think about a year from now when you cant wait to take them off cuz they are dull and chipping.

Rim Quality If you must go to an aftermarket rim, go with a quality brand. Many of the larger rims are made of a softer grade of aluminum and can't withstand much shock. The aspect ratio of the tires for larger rim sizes just magnifies the issue.
There's a tire & rim shop near here that has a pile of the cheap 20" - 26" aftermarket stuff damaged by potholes, curbs, etc.
Most of the European rim folks make OEM stuff as their major business and have a higher manufacturing standard for their aftermarket models. The catch here is that the old cliche "you get what you pay for" applies.
