actually if there already 19's i think u may be dissapointed with the extra inch

maybe its time to try something different?

Surely there are other AC wheels for the 5?

One above dont sound even closely wide enough.

Want at least 10in wide and low offset.

Can find you some awesome ones, depending what you want to pay, good wheels cost money, shit ones dont.
