After doing some more research I decided on 225/35/19 and 245/35/19 falken azenis st115. Should provide a nice stretch. I plan on going very low.

Nice find on those stern wheels! They look a lot like the Work wheels in that style.

Awesome man 5 spd and cusco lsd that must be a blast. I have an s13 coupe as well with red top, s15 bb turbo, fn01rc 17x9 and 17x10 5 lug that put down aroudn 270 the wheel. I little wideband tuning and I may be able to hit 290whp. Lately I've been stock piling parts for my project ls400 though

Dammit -- I just found out that the guy doesn't even have the wheels he is selling nor are they in stock in the US. Bastard.

BTW, I'm running F:20x9.5 +44 & R:20x9.5 +40 with Falken ST115 245-35-20 & 255-35-20 on my LS400. I had the rear wheelwells trimmed off and didn't touch the front. My car is lower with H&R 1.75-inch drop.
However, on my LS430, I'm running F:20x9 +35 & R:20x10 +35 with 245-35-20 & 285-30-20 and lower with TEIN CS 2.5-inch drop & it rubs like hell. I had both the front & the rear wheelwells trimmed off & it still rubs. For the front only when I'm turning onto a driveway that I can hear my front tires try to take out my fender. But I still keep it low......cuz it looks much better
