For starters, you'll have to find out what offset they have.

I checked the TRD website and they don't have a specific name for that model, just part #s'

They have applications listed for Camry, Solara and the SC430

Here's the link

Wow, buy those. 18x8 with 40 offset should fit fine. Same as SC430 wheels I think.

you probably will need a 3mm spacer. because if the stock sc430 wheels need them on our body, and they are the same size and offset, then these trds will need them as well. and that is for a strut/spring suspension setup, if youre coilovers, then goodluck. you can search ebay, and find them as well.
goodluck

sc430 wheels are +45 offset and these are +40 so you might be able to get by without any spacers.
