20's and Tires
So I have had my 20's on my 350 now for a while, and it also has the eibach pro kit on it. I had some serious issues with rubbing when they first got installed and until now the issues realy didn't go away, I just learned to ignore them. I had for a tire set up: Kumho Exsta Sports 225/35/zr20 for the front, and 255/35/zr20 for the rear. Well the tires wore out after approx 20k, and got a new set yesterday. I got the Toyo Proxies on the car now, and I got the same size as before, and what do you know....NO MORE RUBBING!!!
Just wanted to share that with everyone. I guess the brand of tire makes a gigantic difference.

That's GREAT! I got a little discouraged from your reply to my pm about the rubbing issue with 20's and that setup. But now I think I'll dive right into the DUB CLUB! Glad to hear your problems have gone away (with the rubbing)!

I actually got the Proxy 4's also. Thats great news about them. They seem a little bit looser than the Kuhmos were, but they might be over inflated right now. What pressure you have yours at?

i have mine at 38 PSI front and rear. ill admit they are somewhat noisy and they probably dont "stick" as well as other tires but they wear really well. i had the Toyo Proxies SUV tires on my 4Runner in 22" and i got well over 30k on them too, which is why i got them for the Lexus.
