just a quick question, i've been on the prowl for some wheels for my 94 st for a while now. i found some 19 inchers five spoke wheels that some guy will part from them for $150. he had them on a bmw but sold the car. can our car handle 19 inch wheels? sorry i dont have a picture of them.

I went from 17x7 shod in 225/45 to 15x6.5 with 185/65. The tire is not optimal and is a large downgrade in grip, but the car is lower and feels much better dynamically with lower wheel weight and rolling diameter. Technically, this is still an upgrade since factory specs are 14x6 and 185/70.
