I have a chance of even swap for my 18" touring wheels to 19" sport wheels and a quick decision is needed because the swap must happen today. I know I won't have problems going to the sport wheels. But will my touring wheels clear the calipers from the other car??

Thanks in advance!

Sport wheels weigh more than the stock 18's, and unsprung weight is a bad thing. With that said, they look better.

If you want to be clear, post pictures.

These are touring wheels.



These where base wheels prior to the above base wheels.

The base wheels fit. If I had to guess, the touring will fit as well.
