Thanks all! The Camry is very reliable

Wheels are Euro Mag EM10 Silver with Machined Face and Stainless Steel Chrome Lip.

I think I need to raise the car up a little, what do you guys say? The rear seems to squat more then the front.

Maybe a tad, but keep in mind that is also a visual effect because the rear fender is cut lower than the front. Evening the tire to fender spacing out front to rear will give the car a slight rake.

is your pic with car running

I noticed my car sits higher when it is turned off. If I crank it it drops down some in the normal setting. If your car drops when started then I think it would be even lower (too low) when viewed from the side which again is just my opinion and my answer to your question. I think it raises by design to make it easier to get in and out.

It raises when you exit the car because the air suspension had adjusted to the occupant weight in the vehicle. Next time you park, don't turn off the car. Get out and watch the car for a minute or two. It should drop down some.

Yep. I know it adjusts when i get out and when i turn it off. I think it needs to come up some in the rear and give it that rake look, will be on point then, agree?

Personally I like the look of the car the way it is, maybe raise it up 3-5mm but no more than that. Love the wheels too!!
