Nope, but if you go to www.tirerack.com you can see what the Highlander would look like with different wheels, they don't have 20's for it there though, which is probably a good thing, that would be a little much I think. 17's or 18's should be just right You don't want to go to ghetto fabulous with a conservative car like the Highlander, it just won't look right.

Same here... was thinking of doing a +2 fitment on my 05 Highlander (stock is 225-65-17), so will be looking at 19 or 20.

Any sizes folks would recommend ??

Be sure to watch out for what rim sizes will fit. I dont know about the 05 highlander, but on my 88 truck I've been told that if I do anything bigger than 18s I'll have to do some relocation under the hood if I put bags on.

18" Wheels

I have a red '05 Limited and I purchased chrome 18" Lexus RX330 wheels and the corresponding tires - 235-55x18 Michelin Energy MX4. The car looks really sharp and this wheel/tire combo has the advantage of being practically the same OD as the Highlander factory 17" wheel setup, so there are no speedometer or ABS brake issues. The wheels also have the same offset as the Toyota wheels, so front end components should not be adversely affected. Check out eBay for the wheels. They came from www.oemrims.com. I wound up buying the tires from my local Lexus dealer, who came VERY close to the prices quoted by Tire Rack - www.tirerack.com. I had a discrete gold double pinstriping (painted on) added on both sides to go with the factory Gold Package, and also had the two front windows tinted a bit. Not as dark as the privacy glass, but darker than stock, and the vehicle has drawn quite a bit of attention, especially from other Highlander owners.
