    Has anyone tried 19”rims on a R57 before? Interested in any issues they might have experienced?

    Just my 2 cents here.

    I think a 19" rims are not a good idea.
    Very heavy, that will adversely affect ride & handling.
    The very low profile tires are very susceptible to damage.
    Cost of wheels & tires.

    Welcome to MA! I agree with @Crashton i believe they would be to big. My R58 JCW has 18 and they rub on tight turns.
