I have a 1999 Toyota Camry with 14 inch wheels. Could I put on 15 inch Toyota Camry wheels without getting an new alignment done?

thanks in advance guys

Ben, a larger wheel will not affect alignment; however, larger wheels may interfere with suspension components, brake calipers or wheel wells. It's also possible the bolt circle, offset and lug nut seats on the 15" wheels could differ from the 14" wheels. The Parts Department at a Toyota dealer should be able to provide you specific data on each size wheel.
