18's, 19's or 20's
I dont even have a lex right now i'm looking for one....and yeah i'm lookin for rims too. What ya guys think??? they all have advantages and disadvantages. 20's=small tires easy break especially since I travel long distances......19's odd # expensive tires, and I still aint got dubbs, or 18's perfect ride but...will they look too small. HELP

Howdy, sorry I've been away!
19s are drastically more expensive than either 20s or 18s. The 20s are basically retooled 18 in. tires. The 19s are their own tooling. That is why there are not alot of choices for sizes of 19s.

yeh, i saw a couple around here and theyre just awful. ill ride my staggard 19 cause they drastically improve my cars handling, 22's its more about looks. the best is 20's for a mix of looks and functionality.

I have 20in on my 94 gs and my tire size is 245/35- 20 no rub ride not as smooth as stock but no problems with speedometer. I love 22s but not to the point that I would hack my wheel wells and roll the dice with dangerous spacers your front suspension is very expensive remember, 22s on 745LI yes looks good any other car like a chevy caprice or a chrysler 300 roll them because they need as much help to get noticed but a GS3 dont need that kind of overkill .Its your car choose wisely just be happy in the end
