I dont know why people are worried about 19" wheels???  The Rolling Radius has to be kept the same (or near as dammit) thats why you run 35 profile tyres instead of 40 profile.

As long as you stick to certain sizes of 19" wheels and tyres you wont have any problems. I don't. Ive been running 19's for years. No rubbing at all. Even with the car full. Plus I have H&R lowering springs fitted.

Stick to 19X8J ET45 wheels and 225X35X19 tyres and its the same as having 18X8J ET45 wheels.  :confused:
