I've been wondering if it is possible to fit 19 inch rims on an S13 hatch body style? Not that I'm gonna get 19s but just wanted to know. also more details I have full coilovers so it might be able to fit?

depends on width, offset and tire size...I've seen 225-35-19's, those are fairly low OD tires, so they would fit..

but..why?-chet

hate the wheel gap, when ever I'm not using the car for autoX I want to cruise around in some bigger wheels. I like 15's for competition and plus grippy tires are cheaper for small size. I'm thinking of 17's but maybe 18s

Right now I'm on Type C on front and DoriDori on back, both are 15's. BUT I hate hitting everything on the street and the high curbs to go into a parking lot is killing the lip. So I need to set the car higher but hate the fender gap. Solution is probably Bigger wheels.

This is best picture showing Type C

See how low it is to the ground
