Hey guys, so after getting my greddy exhaust installed a couple week back, now im ready for some new mods to my Altima :yesnod

This time im planning on getting some new rims and tires. My question is im planning on getting some 19" rims and tires so it will look nicer than the stocks 17", i was wondering since im going up by 2" in size, will anything affect it? I just have no idea how these things work since this is my first car. Like will i NOT be able to put 19" in it since the stock is 17"?

Well thanks in advance and les hope i be getting this underway ASAP :wavey:

Here's my flameshield just in case, but I don't think I'll need it. Cars don't look "good" with aftermarket wheels and default ride height.

Something like this always comes to my mind: http://www.streetdreams.org/photo/data/ ... Altima.JPG

Well those are 22's. Picture 19's and more gap between tires and fenders. Not my thing at least

P.S.

Sorry if this car belongs to someone from here, but I hope it doesn't!

Well it depends on what rims u like man... or u mean u dont like NONE of it at all?
My car is a pretty brand new car man... got it back in July this year... i didnt scratch the rims... someone else did.. and im really upset with it... and if i take it to fix it is gonna cost at least 100$ and i dont like the feeling knowing the rim is not perfect anymore (Yea im weird)...

So now im just try find some nice and affordable rims...

Will this Tire and Rims work well together?
Suggestions? Will it rub or anything?

Well I'm sure there are some nice oem susension & Aftermarket rim setups that I havent seen but I havent personally seen them. And I'm not talking about just random chrome wheels either. Maybe you should look into it. But i Understand about how you feel about your rims being scratched. I'd want new ones too but I might want springs/coils more =p
