19's?

WTF would you do that to such a pretty car?

:roll:

Could you do it? Yes. You'll need to roll your fenders, get rubber bands instead of tires, and pray you never see even so much as a crack in the asphalt. You'll have to take your fender wells out, and the ride will SUCK.

Ever ride a slick track go cart over a bumpy road? That bad.

I'm pretty sure I saw a Tib with 19's at the car show in Harrisburg this year with spinners, the ones you hook up to the rims atleast. And it did look like chit man!

19's will fit but I would seriously reconsider it! Get 19x7 if possible.

Roll your fenders HEAVILY. Take out your fender well lining. Get air, and then you can roll on 19's. REALLY not worth it. Ashley of Texas did it, and only had them on for shows. Rode on 17's as daily wheels.

Yeah mang, 19's will kill the ride. Rims will bend very easily. Just isn't worth it. We usually suggest to folks to get 16's, yeah, 16's. They are light, and you can put some thinner tires on them, drop the car a bit, and they look frantastic.

For shows? Sure, get a big set of something to have on just for that show. But seriously, you'll hate the ride on 19's.

Anyways, we all know you'll go get your 19's to bling bling yourself down the street.

Default Re: Gear Oil, what are youusing?

yea.. if your goal is just looks.. go with the almost dubs... but for performance, there is no reason to go beyond 16.. rims start getting really heavy beyond that size
