very nice .. what kind of brake system are you using? and those tires are pretty wide .. whats your rim width, offset? seems like those tires are like 20mm wider then what the right tire size should be .. 215/35-19s .. they are like a full inch taller then stock .. i think those rims look great tho .. do you rub at all? by the way .. if u put 235/30-19s they would be perfect (too bad they dont exist tho) .. http://www.rims-n-tires.com/rt_specs...&text1=&text2=

*edit - my bad i just saw the pic w/ the rim width and offset .. 48 is even bigger then stock .. i guess that helps w/ clearance .. still your tires are too tall

The tires are 225/35/19 FR and 235/35/19 rear I think the size tires are perfect not too "thin" so that my ride is negatively effected. They ride excellent is barely any change over stock, and........absolutely no rubbing, as a matter of fact last night I went to Sams Club and bought a printer, and a 2 ton floor jack had that in the car along with another adult as a passenger and STILL no rubbing. Very happy with the set-up as I have yet to see these on another TC!!

I should have put in the profile that only the rotors are Brembo's, I got them from Tirerack.

Thanks! I like the TRD's so far but I am wondering now that I have the rims on it if I should go with some Tein's to drop it a little farther.
