Gen5 I finally got some shoes...
Ive had the 07 SE wheels just waiting in my garage til I found a deal on some tires, and today was that day! I wrapped the wheels with a slightly wider tire, 225/50/17. I love the ride, and it grips the road nicely. I had thought about staying with the 07 SE stock size tire 215/55/17 but it just seemed to thin for me and the side wall wasnt as nice looking. Anyways here are the pics:

You should drop it on TRD springs.

I love the white. When I bought mine I had the choice of getting a white one also. It was a hard decision.

Think I will have any rubbing issues with the wheels and tires I have on? I wish I could take a ride in a Camry that has TRD springs on it....Im so in love with the comfort of the stock ride Im afraid of making it too stiff....

you shouldn't TRD has 17" rims on his (if i remember correctly) i don't know his tire profile, but he doesn't rub..and in the spring i'm getting 18's.

the ride is stiffer, but with your profile tires it shouldn't be so stiff that you hate it.
