Is a 19x10 wheel to big for the front? Thanks

A few of my 19x10 fronts and 19x11 rears. They fit no problem - no rubbing at all.

Hi Patches,

What a stunning vehicle you have there, my friend. BTW, your paint finish displays such a liquid sparkling sheen. Wow. Love the Eradispeeds with your CCW's. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome patches!!!!
I can get 19x10 for the front but will have to order and wait 60 days, or i can go with 19x8.5 and get right now. Would the 19x8.5 be to narrow? I think i would prefer the 19x10s.

Very nice! but is thing even driven? The rotors look like brake pads have never touched it, and the tires still have the paint on them?? Drive it and show that baby to the world!!

It's driven. In fact, I've been thrashing it a bit lately on local roads doing the speed density - and now MAF recalibration - tuning. The other day during a log session I got caught in a downpour. The Zaino keeps the paint so slick that the car was dry and clean by the time I pulled into the garage. Preventative maintenance goes a long way in keeping it fresh. Btw, that pic you pointed out was a few minutes after I mounted those wheels and tires when they were brand new. I literally had only 10 yards of driving on them backing out of the garage.

I love the looks but will this affect the ride or the handling compared to the stock wheels at all?

Yes, it will improve both. Wider tires means better traction and non-runflats (i.e. pirelli p zero rossos) means less noisy ride and better hold around corners.
