I'm getting 17" rimz for mah car, I have the 95 V6 Camry. They come w/ tirez of Kumho 205/40/17..should I upgrade them to 225/45/17 or not. Also, I'm getting the obx intake system, does anyone have this intake. And last but not least, i want to paint my car, something unique of course. What do you think of red red the american flag red or light sea green like the S-Type Jaguar. Thanks for replying.

Personally, I would go with the 225/45/17 they'll be a little less low-profile so the ride won't feel as harsh, but should corner a bit better with the fatter wheel. Plus I just personally think the wider tire looks a lot better then the 205. But it's really up to what you want. What Kuhmo's are they ?? the Ecsta supra 712 ??

They are the Supra 711. Do I really need 712 though (ZR-Rated). Don't really plan to go 140mph. Most likely 120 tops but rarely do that. And how do you add pictures. Just want your opinion about the rimz I'm getting.

Here's a couple of pics of my car w/225/45WR17's on it. I wouldn't go w/the 205/40 17's- they side wall is too short, so it'll throw off you speedo quite a bit. The 712's are a better tire in all aspects (except price) than the 711's, so only go w/the 711's if $ is a big issue. The tires on my car are the 712's, and they're pretty good. They handle well, and aren't too loud.
