Best wheel size for stock suspension?
I just got my first Lexus, 2007 awd is250, and I was wondering what size of wheels I should get.
My goal is to fill as much of the wheel well as possible with stock suspension and without rub as well.
I've been researching for a while around the forums, but haven't had a clear answer. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
If it's not possible at all with stock suspension, what would be the best aftermarket suspension setup to have that still retains a comfortable ride quality?
Thanks!

I am running 18" 2009 Nissan 350z (enkei) OEM rims and love them, plus I found them cheap with brand new Potenzas. I would say you should easily be able to run 19's. My setup is 235/40/18 in front and 265/40/18. 8" wide rim in front and 8.5" in rear. My tires have a tiny bit taller sidewall than stock but are much wider. I'm sure you could even fit 20's if you were willing to roll your fenders and go with say a xxx/30/xx tire or maybe xxx/35/xx. Hope that helps.

I have 19s, and agree that this is probably the best size to fill the factory wheel wells. I went with another OEM wheel that looks great and works well at a fraction of a new wheel price. Check my thread out here :
