Default ???'s about rims....

Whats up guys, finally saved up enough for some rims but i have some questions before i make a decision. I drive a 00 gs300 and looking to buy 20's.. im 6'0, 250lbs and drive the car everyday, so i was wondering if 20x8.5 20x10 is too much or should i find some that are 20x8.5 20x9.5... I'm just really concerned with the tires rubbing because i still want that smooth ride. any suggestions?


Thanks for the help
