Rom,
I'm running 245/35/20 and 285/30/20 for my coupe but I'm going 19" for my GS. I guessed that the 275 would fit on the 19x10. I don't want to give it a stre...tched look. Thanks.

actually 275 is a very good fit on the 10, it's not stretched at all

But if you have the choice between 275 & 285, what would you prefer to get?

If things will fit, I would personally prefer 285. It is a better size match for the 245s plus you get more rubber to the ground. For me, my rear offsets are such that I don't have another 5mm to give unless I shave off all the fender tab.

On a 20x10, I actually prefer the 275, it just looks so much sexier (the 285 looks clumsy IMHO). On 19x10, for some reason, the 285 looks better.

Unless you have forced induction, 275 is just fine for a GS tracion wise.

What's up Derrick- nice. Are those totally high polish or are the lips chrome? The reflection makes the lips disapear in those pics. If it wasn't for the "money shot" I would think the spokes are flush with the edge of the wheels.

Those lips are high polished, there is no chrome availible on 2pc (face or lips).

Previously, I did not really have any pics that did these wheels any "justice" so I just did not showcase them! These I think really give a idea of how nice they are.
