so if 7/3 megans are too soft for my intended fitment, can i go somewhere in between 10/7 and 7/3 with the BCs? what might be the specs on something in between? because i don't want the ride to be too hard...

Just saw this, sorry for the late reply

Stock rates for the Camry are 7/5 from BC which is quite comfortable I'd imagine. Go for 8/6 if you can. Also u need to decide how low your going to drive, if it's gonna be 1.5" off the floor for example, 8/6 might be a bit soft

A little late to this post, I haven't been on in a while... with 9.5" +20 offset will be right where you need, You will need coilovers, Not just any coilovers but some that can handle some stiff rates and dampining.

You will need to roll/pull fenders. Trust me. been there done that..
I had ran some 18x9.5 +20 offset wheels with 225/40 tires and I had rubbing issues even at neg 3 chamber.

Springs and struts are not going to cut it.
I had JIC FLT A2 Coilovers at the stiffest settings in the rear.. Still rubbed one in a while...

Good luck, Props for going the aggressive look, but don't keep cheap out on parts and do it right otherwise its a waste of money and time..

You need gaskets, so that they do not rub on the pillar, but they will poke out. Basically the size you need is a THR classification hereby make you stop rubbing.
I believe most of us has watched so many Women leather shoes and almost all of them are pretty fashion and beautiful, so in order to choose the best Women pumps shoes, we have to gain more experience on CWMALLS.
