im totally curious as well. looking at a set of 19's and wanna here some feedback!
I think every thread about customizing a forte should just have an auto-post feature from your user name that says "stock is better" or "why would you change that?" or "that looks stupid"19's will make it look like a clown car and it will drive horribly. Can't wait to see the pics...lol...
well, the thing is...if you get the correct tire size (which it looks like), the wheel is effectively the same size as if you were running stock wheels w/ a thicker tire. The thing you are going to have to watch out for is the offset. When you lower it, the wheels will start to point inward and you need to be cognizant of how much space you have between the suspension and the tire. If needed, you can run a spacer. THEN you have to worry about the fenders. If you rub there, you can always have the fenders rolled. FWIW, I wouldn't run 19's with anything less than a 2" drop. Otherwise, I would go w/ 18's. I think they will look great though if you do the suspension right.All the numbers show a difference of only 5mm wider on the outside. I'm lowering it 1.2" which should make it sit nice..... If they rub, I'll do 18's, but i'm not too worried about it.
