Touch it and I'll kill you Perfect look for that kit and wheels, low but still classy, oh and somewhat drivable... Looks less than 5" clearance but again your 19"s are deceiving.. Excellent build,you should be proud of it..I would be...

What's your set-up? IMO it's perfect. I've been thinking about doing the 57Xtremes in 18x9.5 all around but I still want that symmetrical wheel gap.

19 x 8.5 + 33 front / 19 x 9.5 +43 rear with BC coils. 18" with these wheels looks good also imho.

I would do 19's but they're too big for my taste, although they do look great. I just wouldn't do 19's unless I was making big power. The only reason I want 18x9.5 all around is for that concave look and because I don't want to lose the oversteer with a staggered set-up.
