Should have done your research before biting the bullet.

Looks like some major fender work to make it right.

I would go with different wheels too. Fitting those will require some substantial work to the fenders.

did you research prior to buying? That will need tons of body/fender work and even then will have lots of camber and might not even look right. Its doable, just a matter of how much you want to fork up in work.

I wouldn't go that route. Doesn't look right on a GS imo.
