Question 19" on S-Techs - Will they rub?

I'm looking at getting some 19" wheels in the near future, but also like the TEIN S-Techs. Has anyone had any rubbing problems with this combination? If it will rub I can always downgrade to 18" or TRD Springs, but I feel the combination of the two would look great. Thanks.

Sorry if this has been asked before, I couldn't find any threads about it.

Yea that has been asked tons of times, but it depends on the width and offset of your wheels.

Most of the time, yes you will be fine

wheel size has nothing to do with fitment.

when you get bigger rim, you get a tire with smaller sidewall therefore the overall rolling diameter stays the same. so with bigger rims the ride quality gets worse because there is less rubber to absorb the shock.

Even Tyga said it in his song Rack City haha

Too much rim make the ride too hard
