I've got some plans in the works as we speak, so I took off the staggered 19's and picked up a set of 17" chrome stockers for the time being. I know a lot of members would like to see the ride height of the Daizens on 17" wheels. Daizens drop 1.9 front and 1.7 rear. I have these with the L-Tuned shocks and I LOVE the ride. I really like the look myself, although the rears are a bit narrow (not what I'm used to)! You can find full size detailed pics in my gallery. Anyway, here ya go!...........

Looks sharp. I love how the Daizen springs DUMP the GS!

Nice photography, too.

The drop looks perfect, did you have any problems with rubbing when the 19s were on?

that drop is perfect.

I think I'm going to pick up a set of the chrome 17's as well seeing as though I can't make up my mind for what style 20 I want.

The daizens give the GS a great height. It looks really good with the 17s and the drop

I had the fat setup with 19's and had no rubbing issues. So if you use the regular 245/35 275/30 you should be fine.

Here's the fat setup with 19's:
