c5 changing wheel size
My 02 has the stock 17s on the front and 18s on the rear. Can I go to 18s all around or possibly even 19s without any modifications.
I am also debating whether to paint the stock rims (painted alloy) black or go to chrome? Any thoughts are appreciated. car is triple black.
Thanks for your help!!!

You can run any size rim you can get to fit; the fitment doesn't have to be staggered. It's the overall difference in front to rear tire diameter that matters...
