Default What would it take to make them fit?

Would there be any problems getting these to fit on a 2000 TA with stock ride height.

What size tire would be recommended for the 19 x 10 in the rear?

Im just having a hard time finding a drag radial in a 19". im starting to think im not going to be able to find one. might have to choose a different wheel due to limited tire selection.

Yeah that is the problem with going with 18's or 19's because of the selection... I am not to sure but I think Nitto is the only one that would make a drag radial for a 19's..

I just got done checking out there site. they got straight from 18's to 20's. completely skips 19's. I really like those wheels but dont want 17's and cant find a wider wheel in 18's other than 9.5". Im thinking bout taking a jump to the y2k's in staggard 18x10.5 and 17x 9.5. that would open up a huge number of options in the drag radial section.

Why are you looking for DR's for a 19 inch wheel? I don't know a whole lot about wheels, but I know side wall is as important (if not more important) than width for hooking. Why not just get two sets of wheels? For the price your going to pay for 19 inch DR's you could probably pick up summit stars, or some DR's for your stock wheels and street tires for the 19's.

Because id be looking for a set of cummer tires for the street. Not specifically for strip use. Factory wheels would be needed for POS winter wheels.
