rims and tires

i have a toyota camry 2002 silver.  i want to change the rims and tires.  i have now 15".  i want to make the car looks good but i dont want to have the very skinny tire.  my friend suggest to go with 17" or 18" rims.  what do you think?  will the car looks good with 17" or 18" rims?  should i go with chrome or painted?  people say chrome looks  nice but it gets mess up in the snow and there other problems too.  

Chrome on silver IMO .. REMEMBER.. its only an and nothing more than an OPINION. Silver on chrome is too common; Silver on black is common in the ricer community LOL. Wheels with a lip looks gross overtime- So; i'd go with one of these or something like it because the spokes goes pretty close to the tip of the wheels and it'll give a bigger look than it really is. My 2002 with 17" really doesn't cut it.
  So- when i do get a do-over; im gonna go with these in 18x8 on 215/50r18 OR 245/45-18. I like to keep the sidewall high because our roads here in norcal isn't really a very desirable road for low-pros.
 

ok cool thanks for the advice.  by the way, how is driving feels like with 18" rims?  is it comfortable or you feel all the bumps on the street? 
 
i am new when it come to tires/rim. what does the 8 after the x means?  what about the 50r and 45- means?
18x8 on 215/50r18 OR 245/45-18
 
by the way, do u have some pics of your car so i can take a look at it in different angle?

I love those wheels.Go 245/45/18 or 235/45/18

hey Akira, thanks for the advice.  actually i love your rim on your car.  can you tell me what sizes are those? are they chrome?  tell me about the tires too
where can i get them?

which rims do you think will look better on 2002 toyota camry(silver). yours or the one in the picture above?

My rims are 18x7.5 with a +45 offset Nexo Px-5 Gunmetal with a inner chrome lip. My tires are Toyo Proxes 4s 225/45/18 all bought from wheelmax.com. With a silver Camry both wheels will look good on your car. Remember by what you like. Its your car.

same here, looking for some new wheels. i've got an 08 black camry. any1 got pics?
