Default Pic request: 19's up front 20's in the back

Anyone have any pictures of a setup using a 19 up front and a 20 in the rear? I've been looking for rims forever and I haven't found any that i'm crazy about yet. If I'm gonna drop so much coin on wheels I want to make sure that I get exactly what I want. I feel like 19's are perfect up front and 20's look great in the rear. Lemme know! Thanks.

I love the 19/20 look on the GS, lowered stock body GS's from the side profile 'to me' always look like the rear wheel is a bit smaller, it's a visual illusion because the wheel arches are at different heights on the body and gives this effect.

Combo's are popular on bagged trucks to which I am also partial. Having both different front rear diameters as well as width is considered a Staggered Combo.

go to bimmerforums.com or other forums and you would wish you can take this back. clublexus is the MOST GIVING/KIND forum around. We just WISH people would simply do a SEARCH prior to a WHOLE thread. Thats all.

I used to have 18's in the front and 19's in the back on a 93 toyota Mark II I had when i was in Japan. All I can say is if you find a good set of rims with a nice lip to it, it will make the car look quiet mean on a good lowering job!! I had my front end a little bit lower than the back and it looked amazing! I have a Pic at home. Ill try to post it up tonight.

i personally like 20's all the way around stock body or not, but if you drive super low or are bagged, then i would consider 19's. in my opion this is a larger body are that 20"s fit perfectly....but then again if you look at say chrysler 300's and dodge magnums they require a 22" wheel to fill thier arches, and they are not much bigger than a gs. imho
