it would look up da shit unless u pump the guard and cut out sum of the wheel arch cause with 19's and stockie springs, u would be ridin pretty high. it would look pretty stupid that's y u cut some of your wheel arch out so u can put lower springs in.

if i was spending 3000plus for rims i'd go aldan coil overs or a rod tech tube stainless front and eliminate the shocker towers. that way u can dump it, step the rails in on the rear and a set of mini tubs would be sweet. now ur talking........ $$$$$$

i;d hate to a) buy tyres, b) ride over a pebbel

have fun

Why would you have to cut yor wheelarch?

For example, you can fit 16" wheels with 50 series tyres, or for the exact same roling diameter, you can fit 21" wheels with 25 series tyres. Overall, its the same diameter, so if 16's fit, then 21" wheels will fit, so 19" wheels will also fit.

Thats sort of the size you would have to buy to fit 21" rims on a gemini with factory suspension components. I'm sure you could go bigger with more positive caster.
