19" wheels will not fit your car. People fitting 18" wheels are having trouble enough finding tires that will make the wheels go on without scrubbing. I think Pirelli P-Zero 225/35/18 are the only 225 width tire that will fit. Some also run 215/35/18 Pirelli P7000.
With 19" wheels you would still need to keep within the same rolling cirumference and such low profile tires doesn't excist. Pirelli makes P7000 in 215/35/19 but that's 3% bigger than the 225/35/18 tires.... And those are bigger than original fitment too I suppose. What are the original tire size on your car ?

Sorry guys couldn't resist Carlos.
I've been waiting years to use that.
It was an add on TV about putting wheels and tyres so wide the stuck out about a foot from the car and when the car went through a width restriction it left its wheels behind.
It was about Panatellas I think.
Hunter! It's only been 20 odd years since then.
Why did you have to remind me of my age I was getting used to not using my Zimmer.
