very clean CFW. I just picked up an awd 350 and need new wheels desperately. Is your suspension setup stock?

I'm on F-Sport springs which lower the car only 1" and was wondering if I'll need any fender mods or will have any rubbing issues with these specs.
20x8.5 (front) 20x10 (rear), offset front 20, rear 25, approx. on Yokos 245 front, 275 rear
Wheels are the MRR GT1, black face, polished lip. What do you guys think on my GS?

You will rub with those rim specs with out fender mods. That's kinda aggressive for this GS.

I'm running 20x8.5 +40 225/35/20(f) and 20x10+40(r) 265/30/20 Conti DWS and barely clear my fenders. I didnt want to do any fender mods on this car.

Thanks for your reply. I do not want to do any fender mods either. So looks like I'll have to pass on these.

Everything is stock. No mods to the suspension. Smooth ride and no rub.

Looks like this is the most aggressive offset I seen on 3GS. How in the heck did you get those wheels to fit? How's the ride with car dropped like that?

He is on air so he doesn t ride as low as it is in the pics, and he made them work by pulling the hell out of his fenders. He may also have camber arms

Since we have in Russia awful roads I decided to put 18" wheels. 18" maximum for our roads!


18 х 8 Toyota "G-Spider" (Enkei) 1150$
Part #: 08457-30813
Dunlop Sport Maxx TT (245/40)
Also I installed the second set of TMPS.
One set for winter wheels (17")
Other set for summer wheels (18")

If someone is interested in these wheels >

I would have never believed a 235 width tire would work on a 10 in width wheel. Still don't believe it.
