any1 got 19" rims without being lowered?

I didn't drop it either. By dropping it you have the headache of going through potholes, elevated driveways and possible camber problems. I have a Vette parked next to me, and the Vette sits higher from wheel to fender. I can put my whole hand in it. Changing subjects, I just read a Sports Compact Magazine about myths of aftermarket parts. Surprise about brake kits, but knew about the 19s. They said, going 19s slows you down, best go 17s. This is for racing, not building a showcase car.

Now that's something I didn't know about the 19's. I don't plan to lower mine either when I put the 19's on, or maybe put them on. Could you post the issue date of the magazine an the name of it, unless that is the name. I'm really interested in getting it to read up on this issue. Thanks

put a dropped z next to a stock z, end of story. gotta be dropped. i see a lot of responses about potholes. your gonna hit them if your dropped or stock, what's the difference? and the driveways, my teins are set to the lowest and never had a problem yet. just learn how to approach steep driveways.
