It seems like the popular consensus was that 19's look "too big" on an RA, but I think it is dependent on what style rims you have. What do you guys think?

No rubbing, because I had my rears rolled when I got my Evo X intercooler vent bezel installed. They drive and feel just like my 18s

because its black you can't really see where the rim starts/ends ..so I'll say it looks ok but if it were any other color it would probably look foolish

sorry about the crappy iphone pics. Even up close, the sidewall doesn't look like a rubber band. So much to say that if i didn't tell you they were 19's, you would not know.....

The lip on those rims helps them look not-so enormous. Came out pretty decent for 19s, i think.

Thanks. Like I said before, honestly, if I didn't tell you and you saw the car, you would think they are 18's. It worked out exactly how I wanted it to. Now I have TONS of clearance for my newest brake project

Really? You just had to go and get the same wheels as me, and you live in my area too... ugh. Time to change it up. I'm buying some green wheels or something.
