Stay with 18's, in fact even the 17" are big enough, but everyone has a different taste.

17s are fine and you can find plenty of good looking Lexus OEM rims that fit your car without a hassle.

Been there, done that.

There are few 20 inch rims that fit and even those you would be riding on rubberbands. 18s are the safe way to go.

My car is sitting on 18s right now with a 215/40/18 tire.
Federals.

The wheel dimensions are 18x9 so I'm running stretch. Car also lowered. Giving ideas

Maybe you can se if you like the look of 18s.
