Those are absolutely not the right rims for your car. The suspension on that model year is not designed for anything larger than 17" rims, and running 19's could well be unsafe. If you do a search you'll find a few threads on the topic in this forum.

Get some 17's and run 205/50's on the front and 255/40's on the back. It will handle and ride much better. I'm going into my third season on the same rubber (Michelin) and I still have loads of tread left.
