i think 35series tires are to thin. I have 215 40 18s and the side wall looks perfect. It does ride rough though. I would say get at least a 40 series sidewall or ur gonna be bending some rims. As far as tires....falken have really hard sidewalls so there is a less chance in damaging your rims. I have no idea about the toyos. Only tires i have put on my car have been nitto, falken, sumitomos, and yokohama. I like the yokohama paradas i have no because it doesnt wear as fast and looks cool. the paradas are not well in the rain than i expected but sticks like glue in dry weather. That is the only bad thing about the paradas.
