18s aren't that bad (only about 6% difference for the suspension geometry to handle). My main point is that you might also consider different springs (ones that don't lower your Supra as much) to solve the speed bump problem. After that, if you still want bigger rims, then get them ...but only because you want bigger rims. Make sense? There are several spring options to choose from - please let me know if you'd like some recommendations.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
