19's?
 
Im wondering what are the major drawbacks to 19's on an fbody? I always thought 18s would be as big as id go but a guy is giving me a real good deal on some HRE Wheels and they look siiick. And also if anyone has pics of 19's on a firebird or just on any fobody thatd be cool. Thanks!

19x8.5 with 255/35/19 front, 19x9.5 295/35/19 rear. no probs at all, i actually ran faster at the track, switched from 18" zo6. they look 10000X better in person.
