Default Wheels: What do you think

I was looking into running some 19x 9.5 chrome Foose Speedsters. I would like you all to take a look at the wheels and tell me your opinion. Thank you all!

IMHO it is very difficult to make 19's work on an fbody, appearance wise. Some guys here have pulled it off but not that many IMHO. 18 is about as big as I would go.

do those even come in the correct bolt pattern?

on a side note, i dont think the speedsters would look so hot, but to each his own. some local GM dealers have been putting 18" speedsters (or knockoff's) on the GTO's, they look awesome. i wouldnt have thought they would look good on a GTO either, but it turned out nice. so who knows.

Like you all said, It would probally be best to go 18 x 9.5, so I will go with the crew here and go 18. A little cheaper is always good as well! Thank you all
