The car doesn't go any higher (or lower, for that matter) when you add 19" rims unless you don't use the appropriate size tires. An increase/decrease in the total diameter of the wheel/tire will raise/lower the height of the car, so you want to compensate for the larger rim with a lower profile tire. Use the Miata calculator to figure specifics.....
