Gen5 Rims size help!

hey guys so i got my camry sitting on eiback pro kit. and now that i finally have money to get rims im deciding between 18s and 19s. i know that 19s would look probably the best but i am concerned about the driving part. I drive pretty fast on turns etc.. and siNce ITs lowered car gets bouncy on certain roads. so for those that have their camrys on 18s and 19s. give some feedback please!

lol you don't even know what bouncy is... rofl.

get 18's with some good size rims. I heard that 7.5 wide rims are pretty good on the Gen5s.

Yea I like to drive fast around turns. If your ride around turns is a bit unstable maybe invest into a front strut bar and a RSB.

Gen5 With lowering springs and tire prices

I lowered my 05 with k-sport springs and have 18's x7.5 Should have bought 17's with the lowering rides better and tires are cheaper and the car don't have the low-rider look. I Like my car but i'm 39 and the ride gets rough on bad roads.
