I also will be getting some 19's, actually ordered them today. Just to let you know I'll be running 19x8 +40 in front and 19x9.5 +35 in rear with 235/35/19 Nitto 555 tires all around and will be lowered with TRD springs which I'll order next week.
These guys here, especially Epsilon, Moky and everybody are very helpful in these areas.

Glad to be of service. You ended up going with those Petrol Octane wheels?
Yeah, I like the simplicity of it and the big lip in the rear. Also I didnt see any other wheels that caught my eye. More than likely in the future I will get them painted a different color lilke hyperblack because of the dark color and gloss look.

im getting 19x8 konig heatsinks all around. i noticed that the "suggested" tire size for 19s is 225/40/19. i looked and the 235/35/19 is about .5" smaller tire. does that affect the speedometer and what not?

Out of those two choices, go with the 225/40/19 since there's only a .27% diameter difference, whereas the 235/35/19 is a 2.61% diameter difference. With the 40 profile tires, you will get extra ride quality and comfort compared to the 35's.
Why staggered tires on Camry? It's front wheel drive. Staggered tire is a bad idea, as you're using smaller tire to pull a bigger tire, and it might cause understeer in a FWD.
i just went and priced 225/40/19 tires and i do not want to be spendin that kind of money. i guess i can go with 18x8 wheels instead
19" tires are generally more expensive than the usual 18s or even 20s. Better to get 18s for looks and ride quality, OR 20s for bling bling look but not so good ride quality.

i am definitely trying to avoid the bling bling look.
ive made a decision on the wheels and tires though, im getting the 18x8 konig heatsinks with the 225/45/18 bf goodrich g/force t/a kdw-nt tires. just going to shop around now and find the best price.
