Read the Camry FAQ for info on the springs and struts you can use and the drop they will give you.

Also, the rubbing depends on the offset and tires you use.

The thread you were pointed to ( http://toyotanation.com/forum/t116092.html ) was made in 2006, so it's pretty recent and has lots of info on springs/struts. Read the thread and see if you find your setup.
