Default Offset

Its says low offset on that wheel witch is he oppsite of what a GX needs, that really narrows your options. I had to custom order mine.

I would not go with 305 I have 275 which are perfect they dont rub at all, and I would stay away from tires like Sunny. Get atleast Kumho, Hankook, or Ventus. Sunny tires are cheapest crap on the market. Otherwise wheels looks great.

Symbolic C-7's. Custom order means made to exact GX specs. I think the off set is 108mm. From Tire Masters, Corona Del Mar, Ca. Beware most of those cast wheels weigh more than 60#'s. These are the same as stock GX hardware.

I am a manager at A large tire retailer. I have had 20's, 22's 24's and now
26's on my gx. The best offset to go with is a 15mm or lower. It sets the wheel even with the fender and you will have no clearance issue with the upper a-arm. Anything more than a 15mm offset you may rub the upper a-arm until the vehicle has been lowered back down off the lift. I currently run a 295/30/26 pirelli scorpion and have no clearance issues at all. The tires do not rub when turned in any direction
