Proportionally, I prefer the look of 20s on the GS to 19s... the 20s fill-up the
wheel wells side-to-side better than the 19s which is important if you're
slamming the car. Frankly, my 20s are starting to look small...

Like I always say: "twenties are the new nineteens."

I noticed that your handle is VIPLexus... are you going for a VIP look?
If so, the Sevas probably gets you closest to that look (but it's not
particularly VIP-looking).
if he's going VIP, he can't rock your tire sizes you quoted....word is born

With the right widths and offsets, you can get away with murder on the 2GS.
The car can swallow an 11.5" rear wheel without serious issues. A 275 on an 11" would certainly work, no problem. Similar to putting a 245 on a 10" as far as tire stretch- just add the additional width on the inside...

235 on a 9" front wheel is known to work. And a 9.5" front wheel works fine, too.
