binelus, ahh, are your present wheels stock? if so 18s would look tough on your car,but I would go for more than an inch on the drop..I have H&R 1.2 inch drop on the 97 and there is way too much gap on the front for me.
I dont know about those wheels.....are they giovanna wheels?
wheels look like hubcaps,wouldn't do chrome or wheels with out a lip...just my opinion though
diffrent strokes for diffrent folks

I have always hated those rims to death, but when I see them, I def LOOK!! LOL They have a aggresive look to them!! I would never buy them, but your ES would look really crazy with them on. If you gonna get them go 19 though, just run a low profile tire (215/225front)
I saw them in 19" on a 95 Accord that was lowered
man those things were BLINDING ME!!

These are my previous rims:
They are 18's 225-40ZR18 khumo tires. I dunno about the 19 inch wheel though...If talkin about a low profile tire, is it something like 225-30-18 ? That would be too small ! No ?

problem is, people will be checking themselves out in the reflection instead of checking out your rims....
i don't like them, too much metal for me and the chrome with small holes wont help for brake ventilation....
you can find better IMO
