  1. larryl no not no bs if youd like i can upload pis to show facts not saying all inch rims are the same if u read my post correctly which im assuming you just did a quick glance at it but i did speify that the way it would work is depending on the rims sidewall the one i used had a thick sidewall that when i tried to accelerate i wasnt abl to cuz the rim hit the calliper making it impossible to move if i used a rim with a thinner sidewall yeah youd be correct and id be able to keep calliper on meantime but i didnt have that choice as im sure you did but again if youd like i can post photos or a video showing my proff just saying not all rims are made the same
  2. i can use the 17inch rims to replace the 19s right but if they are factory you got to remove the brake calliper but thats not something you wanna do as brakes are needed to stop the vehicle when driving only way to get the 17 to work is to get some rims with a much thinner sideway just thought id put that out there im speaking from expirience my 19inch rim cracked when my wheel studs gave out(side note i live in a small town where ever road has potholes everywhere they are hard to miss swearving to miss them only does so much because there to many and its every single roaad) so after trying 20 plus rims to try and fit my car (another side note we got tons of tires and rims we do alot of mechanic work and often cars we scrap we keep tires and rims) i had no choice but to put a 17 inch rim just to make it home at least since the tire hight matched my 19s but when i tried to take off i couldnt so with no other option i had to remove the calliper and pinch the brake line just thought id give a lil extra tip
