22's wheels are not my taste they are too big for the car. just do a nice set of 20's

Check out the Special Interest DUB forum for some pointers on wheels if 22+ sizes are you forte. The general 2GS population is not too fond of them.

yeah, if it were me i would put 20's if you got a full kit.... and 19's if you got a lip kit.... unless the lip kit brings you down as low as a full bumper body kit... then go 20's..... just my $0.02....

Rule of thumb,
17's too small, will create much problems... no heads turning.
20's perfect. Much heads turning

I say 21's max on the GS, but you would only be able to pull it off a la bluelex.
