Car will not be lowered, better to go with 18's or 19's

I am debating if i should stick with a nice set of 18's or go a little crazy and go another inch bigger. obviously tires will be expensive as hell for 19's, but if the car looks that much better with the 19's id rather do that. I have no plans to modify the suspension as im keeping the car a daily driver, I have a 73 LeMans to rock on weekends

anyone got some pics of wheels on stock suspension would be most appreciated, all ive found is people with their cars lowered and rims so far

I have been thinking the same thing. All I see are lowered with 19's, but I am going to go with 19's without lowering anything. I am 99.9% sure that will look perfect

I have seen pictures of you 19's and the look small without lowering the car. If you are afraid of fitment issues try the TRD springs.

Yes, I think i will be going with the trd springs,the other springs drop it 2 much,plus am debating wether 2 get a lip kit or body kit

Yes, the reason is the spring rate is so soft the travel makes the tires rub the inner plastic lining and also on large bumps the rear fender lip brushes on the rear tire sidewall. I am switching tonight to h tech for this problem.
