Thanks all....

The key is to take the advice of others and learn. My current setup is my third set and I still would like to go a little more aggressive up front....maybe a 10" ?????

Okay I don't want to hijack this thread but I'm going to (but its inline with the OP) What do you guys suggest? I am looking for a slightly more aggressive stance without using spacers and modding my fenders. My current setup is 20 x 8.5 with +35 all around. I was thinking of going 20 x 9 w/+35. What do you guys think?

Thanks and sry Mike.gani

i have 20x9 +34 with 235/30/20, and i had to work a bit on my front fender to make them not rub. so if you want no fender mods, it's going to be tough. but then again, my car is low

well...I have 20x9.5 +40 with 245/35 and coilover not too low, only little rub on the wheel well, not too bad at all. My rear is 20x10.5 +20 with 275/30 at first before lowered, I took my wife and son one day, one piece of rubber came off from the side wall of tires while driving onto the driveway, now it's lowered and i changed them to 265/30 with shaved fender done(not all the way, 3~4mm left), it still rubbing while driving onto driveway and bumps on the freeway, slightly better than before, i'm hoping when i'm done with fender pulled and shave completely, it should be ok, if not, I guess I have to go for 255/35 instead.

I will post them once the fender work finished this week. Question, is our car only can do front toe adjustment? nothing else? becasue I took it to do alignment last week after it's lowered, they were only able to do toe in front, no rear, and no camber at all front & rear...

Hi guys,

I found another set of wheels:

20 x 9.5F +36 with 3mm built in spacer
20 x 10.5R +31

What do you guys think about this one? Will it fits (and of course looks good ) in GS?

Btw, do anyone knows the offset of an OEM 17" Alloy wheels for GS? I would like to learn how to calculate the offset fitment by using the offset calculator but I need the offset of the OEM wheels. I've looked up in Google but can only find the width (7") but not the offset.

Thanks in advance!

-Michael
