Questions about 19 inch rims

Do they affect turning radius?

Would i have to make any adjustments if i put em on my car, meaning would they touch the top or anythin? Would i have to make adjustments just to make em fit?

I got stock suspension right now, if i got 19s could i lower my car? if so, how many inches? If i dropped, how many inches away would my tires be from touching the top?

thx

run with 215/35/19. your car might rub if you have drop , depends on offset of rims. camber setting, tire size.
check out tire calculator

Before I had bags, I had the Ground Controls. My car was dropped with no fender gap and I had no problems with rubbing. I have 215/35/19.

Trust me u wont have rubbing problems with 19s rubbing unless u went with 235-35 tires then u would rub. I've had 225-35 and didnt rub and I've also rode on 20s in the back and had no problems. If u go 20s u wont be able to turn all the way cus it will it and theres not a small enough tire to go with them plus I only know of one company that makes 4 lug 20s. Well anyways to answer ur question u wont have problems rubbing with 19s.
