Default Thinking of 20"s on my 05 es330

Hi everyone. First post! I have an 05 es330 that's bone stock. I'm thinking 20"s but don't know if they will be too big. I'm not a fan of rubbing so I figured I would see what you guys are running or if you had to mod to fit 20"s. I'm not opposed to 19"s or 18"s but would prefer 20"s Please post pics if you can but any input will be appreciated.

Thanks Ryan

19" is the biggest I would recommend for that 05' ES330 / 225/40R19. The 20" wheel will require the tire to be wider in order to meet the GAWR for the vehicle and I wouldn't foresee I wider 20" fitment to go on that ES and require zero modifications. So in short it can be done but modifications would be needed.

Thanks I trust your judgment. I'll probably go with 19"s

If I did get 20"s what would I have to do for them to fit with zero rub?
