sure you can, it all depends on the size/offset of the rim and what size tires. but IMO 19's are way to big for the S

You could run 20s if they were the right offset... it's all about offsets. You should check out the sticky at the top of the Wheels and Tire forum. It is rather informative.

W_H_Y...... Just my opinion don't have to listen to it, but Its to dang too big for the car. No need to go that big unless you are all show. Personally I have seen 19's on a S2k and it look like a toy and fake looking. anyways it was wierd looking to me....

I agree 19's too big. I'd prefer 17in. but might accept 18's if the wheel only came in this size.

Really doesn't look bad but I think 17's would look even better. The visuals of large wheels on a small car seem to detract attention from the car and place attention to the wheels.
But this is only my opinion ,if yours is different then these wheels may be for you.

that wheel gap is horrendous... It needs to be lowered badly.

forget how it looks, 19s will hurt the cars handling and slow you down

Hey im kinda new to this site. I just got an S2k and I was thinking of putting 19's on there. Would it really be a problem to put 19's on it?
