Default 19"s on an S

I just want to know if anybody has tried 19" wheels on an s2k or does anyone know if this will work. Any info is appreciated! Thanks

It will look a little goofy, I saw a red S with some 19" chrome wheels and it looked really goofy. It was a chick driving so I suppose she went and said I want big chrome wheels and that's what she got, ruined the aesthetics and performance of the S but got what she wanted...Big chrome wheels(at this point they're rims, though).

The biggest I would go is 18's. You can have almost no wheel gap but still have decent amount of ground clearance not have take speed bumps at angles.

I got a friend selling me some axis supermesh wheels I had on my 04 accord and I loved the wheels, but I sold them to my friend and now he's selling them back to me pretty damn cheap with tires. I might try them out to see how they look on the S and if I dont like it Ill trade somebody something else. but ill definetly poset some pics up when I get em. I just wasn't too sure if they would work on this car. Heres how it looked on my accord.

I think even 18s are too big for the s2k. 17s look perfect on this car.

19s will work on the car. You just have the follow the same offsets as you would for any other size. Also, I find it looks better with a body kit.

But keep in mind that most 19s are heavy and will affect performance, but if you're not tracking it, I wouldn't really worry about it.
