Wheel question!
I've been searching all over for new rims. I've decided I'm going to get either 18's or 19's. I especially like the Konig Sideways but they come in either 18 x 7.5 or 19 x 8. Is the 19 x 8 too big? Will it rub at all? I would rather have the 19's if it will work. Some sites indicate that it will fit. Here is the wheel I'm talking about tho I haven't decided on these yet. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

Yeah 19s will fit just ask neon on 19s . Ive seen a few sxts and other neons runnin around on 19s and I think those sideways would look really nice on your ride. You may have to get some wheel spacers which arent much at all to avoid rubbing issues.

RE: Wheel question!
looks like im going to be looking at some rims...just a few minutes ago I'm driving in this storm and my car is doing fine. I hit the really icey intersection when I was pulling out of a parking lot. Maybe going about 10mph and the road looked a little slushy but nothing worse than what the rest were. Well I wasn't even on the gas and my car decided to get understeer and i kinda slammed into the curb cracking my rim and putting a bulge in my tire. yay! now I don't only need rear tires and need front tires with new rims! woohoo...no money to do that though lol.

RE: Wheel question!
I almost want to say you'll get some rubbing on a 8" tire. Neon perches and struts are kinda small...
Come on Nate, I know you have some input 
lol
