I wonder why so TALL!

Cpoz, won't these rub like crazy? What offset are they?

I see a fender roller in your future.
Ive seen 19" wheels on an S before... dont remember the width and offset but they never rubbed. You just have to find the proper offset and it should be doable.

Even dropped on coilovers?

I have never seen anything even in 18" wheels that have a 63+ rear or 50+ front offset. We have a guy in our local group with 18" and 48 offsets front/rear on stock ride height and they rub badly.

I forgot how dropped the car was...but youre looking at standard mass produced wheels.

When you get into special applications like this, you need to look at custom wheels where they create the wheels for you in the offsets that would work for you. You have to look at brands like HRE, Fikse, iForged, etc...

It is... HREs cost anywhere from 1100-1500 per wheel depending on what you want.

on the other hand, there are some reasonably priced custom wheel makers too. I believe iForged isn't too expensive... and there are 1 or 2 more, but their names elude me at the moment
