the site said that the schmidts went up to 19"s and they look good, but I wonder how they would look that big

I was thinking the same thing, personally I would not go over 17". It may look strange, bigger wheels look better is they are nice bold lines, not spokes flying everywhere. They look tight, but 19" is pushing it

I know what you mean, it is either 4-spoke or 7-spoke 17". I am not so sure about the 16" anymore. But then again, nothing is happening until I get my car lowered :D
