I know of a few people who have 19" wheels. I think they look real good, but be prepared to be shaken around a bit. The ride will be VERY rough.

Also don't expect to be able to lower the car as much as it appears the one in the picture has been.
Being lowered that much DOES make it look silly. But besides that I expect that it's been photoshopped as it looks like you won't be able to turn the front wheels without it rubbing.

That looks 'photochopped' and those rims look bigger than 19" That said, with adjustable coilovers you can slam your car to the ground for show and then lift it back up again for actual driving.

19s will make you slower and handle worse than stock, but you'll be gettin' mad ho's yo!

Dunno Hon . . it all depends on if you wanna drive it or jus' sit in a lawn chair at a distance n' admire it.
Be well.

MTV rap video's and stuff, earning respect maaann, looking good for others, buying a car to attract attention.
That's where all that craze come from.
In 10 or 20 years time we can all laugh with it on how ridiculous it was.
