Here is some 19x9.5 +25 on the front and the rear on some supper stretched tires.

Is it me or do 19s seem really large on our cars?

I personally think 17-18 is the way to go. like you said, anything bigger looks 'huge' on these cars. I think it has to do with the arch design, or the visual trick the two tone plays on your eyes.

With that said, this dude has a cool setup on his camry and its for sale; https://www.clublexus.com/forums/whe...5x114-3-a.html

Yes they are too big but im getting some wheels that are 18x9.5 +22 all around and ima make it fit.. the only problem is that it has a step up lip so itll make the face look smaller but they will look sick....

Yea they stick out a little bit but with some stretched tires and some camber ill tuck them nicely.

Thanks i think they are going to look clean on the car rolling down the street. Yea i think i might be one of the only people who test fit so many wheels. Thats the only way to really know what you can fit and what you cant.
