Default 19s with sportlines?

Hey guys,

Just needed to see if I can fit 19s on my lowered car. I was looking at possible 19x9.5s or 19x10s at the largest on the rear. I know I can't fit any larger in a 17" diameter without rubbing or bending. So, can I fit something like this? I'm probably going to stagger the front and rear, running nothing less than a 19x 8.5 in the front.

Suggestions? comments? etc. I really want a new look for the car. Was going to do welds, but don't always want to go in a straight line. Love SSR GT3s and some of the wheels I was just checking out on ebay. I want a dished look for CHEAP!

Mike

19x9.5s and 19x10s will fit in the rear or front. You'll just need a fairly thin tire (You have to keep the same overall diameter as stock). If you rub in the rear you can pound in the area that its rubbing. For the front you'd have to mold the inner plastic to fit a wider wheel (if it rubs).
