WELCOME!!

If you want to know about mods, this is the place. All sorts of info on intakes, exhaust, wheels, etc. As for wheels, 19's (and even 20's) will fit. Getting 19's myself (the RonJon Devotions). Check out the various sub-forums for info on specific things (Wheels/Tires, Performance, Audio) or do a search with the search function (in a drop down box towards the bottom of the page if I remember correctly).

Don't want to turn this into a wheel thread, but you can go up to 20" X 9" all around. Not sure about a drop if you go 20, but you can easily drop with 19's (a lot of people have that combo). Stock wheels are X 8, so I definitely wouldn't go less than that. Go to the Wheel/Tires/Suspension sub-forum and look around in there...all kinds of good stuff.

Fits 19x8 or 19x8.5 with 45 offset. People have run as low as a 35 offset and claim it fits as well. Bolt pattern is 5x114.3. Make sure the rim is "hubcentric" ---made to fit the TL's hub size (i forget what it is off the top of my head) or at least get a good "hub ring" or you'll feel vibration in your wheels. Correct tire size is 245/35-19.
