I'm on 19's with the TRD springs and it fits just perfect. I was going to do 20s but I'm glad I didn't now. They looked a little high when first installed but after they settle they have about 1/4" gap between the fender and the top of the tire.

any pics? i had originally thought about 19s or 20s. but figured there wouldnt be room to go that low. thats why i stuck with 18s. now i want 17s so i can get a lil more low

Sorry the car is so dirty I'm in the middle of a road trip but with 5 people in the car and a weeks worth of luggage the muffler scrapes very lightly occasionally. 1,000 miles on HWY 101 led to 12 scrapes.


EDIT: for some reason it comes out upside down....no idea why sorry.

just want to throw this out there.....that 19s are likely going to be much heavier...than stock wheels....even if you go pro balling and go with rays or enkeli or another lightweight wheel 19s are big

long story short.....you will loose tq and thus performance because the engine needs to get those heavy things rolling...

so nice to finally see another amazon green xd on here! welcome. are those 19s you are running? and what kind of drop are you running because i dont see how you should be scraping anything on the road. im running S-Techs and even with my car loaded down ive never scraped anything but my front fender liners on my tires. nothing ever hits the road unless i hit a dip too fast and my front end hits.
