Even with a 3 inch lip, the main reason i think hes going with that wide is for all the ponies hes going to be pushing.

To answer all of the questions.........dont be fooled by the wide tires, the GS can only handle so much of a lip with the offsets that need to be run. SO unfortunately, no monster lips to go along with the monster tires.
Front lip will be 2" on a 255/30/20
Rear will be 3.5" lip on the 305/25/20...........most of the width thats being added will be going inward not outward.
This will require a few mods to fit, and should fit without rubbing issues over and above what we all deal with....and yes, the car will sitting nice and low.
The fender will be trimmed, no more than what it was on my black GS though...which was nothing major. I trimmed the fender lip to the point where the spot welds are that hold the two seams of sheet metal together, ez to do with a dremmel or a cutting wheel...no biggy. There are a few other slight modifications that need to be done to make this offset wheel work, but once again, nothing major. Keep in mind, this is what I was told.....I geuss I will know for sure when I get them on the car....hopefully within the next 4 weeks.
As far as the wheels IM going with..............Dayton wire wheels, gold spokes, chrome lips!!!![EEK!](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/eek.gif)
bling bling baby...........the switches will be on there next.

Um, I think 355's would be two inches wider than a 305.

HRE makes a new wheel exactly like that in 20's. It's not on their website yet so you can't see any pics of it.
