Nice! That was quick. Are you getting new set of wheels?

Anyway, 19's should fit as I ran them before. However, if you are lowered you need to run stretched tires. This also depends on how wide the wheels are.

Very cool - make sure you get a set of A8 brakes for two reasons - first, to offset the extra unsprung weight of the car, and second, because they're damn sexy and the stock brakes look impotent behind big wheels
