when you say sunk are you saying like a inch? or just a little bit? I didnt know up factory wheel specs yet I am just looking to keep things flush/tucked and run a 18"

I'm sure these fitments have been asked before, but I couldn't see it on this thread. Anyhow, here goes...
My 01 GS is lowered to about a 1 finger gap and I wanna run this setup if I can. If I can avoid it, I'd like not to have to roll or pull the fenders, some rubbing inside the wheel well is fine..
Front: 245/35/19 on 19x8.5 +35
Rear: 285/30/19 on 19x10 +30
I know the fronts should be fine but the rears is what I'm kinda worried about because of that offset on the set of rims I'm looking at.
Posted in the 18 inch wheel thread but test fitted 18x11+42 with 305.35.18 R888's there was still at least an inch and more left to go inside. Anyone that wants to run wider wheel/tire setups that go in more under the car shouldn't have an issue with 12 +50 to 54 with 305's maybe 315's.
Just picked up a set of 20" maya RT5 wheels. 20x9 +30 / 20x10.5 +29 specs. Car is currently stock but I plan on shaving the rears and rolling the fronts. Slamming on BC coil overs. What brand and size tires does everyone recommend? I was thinking a 225/35/20 (front) and 255/35/20 for the rear??? Looking for a mild stretch but again I want to be pretty low. Car is daily driven but roads in Maryland are pretty good. Let me know, thanks!

I had Maya wheels in the same exact offset. I ran a 225/35 and a 245/35. I don't know about the 265 Plex is suggesting but a 255/35 should fit as long as it isn't a brand that runs large.

I suggested that based on my own fitment even though I have 19's. There's room for 265's that way less lip shows but maybe that's the look you and him want.

He has 20's. It has nothing to do with going for a look. My front fenders were semi rolled and my 225/35 still got caught on my inner fender a time or two. A 255/35/20 is an inch taller than stock. Not sure if you were suggesting a 265/35 or 265/30. A 265/35 is very tall. My rear tires cleared without extreme camber but the stretch was needed even though I had a shaved fender. I was just telling the guy there was room for a 255/35 if that is what he wanted. You're estimating, I had the same exact wheels from the same exact manufacturer just with a different face design.
Same wheels, same offset. It's tight. You would need to shave your fenders flat pretty much to run 265's and you would still risk the tire rubbing (not my favorite thing to do since I had an inner fender split away after shaving past the spot welds..
Thanks for the replies fellas, and the pictures help me a lot! Tiger do you recommend something smaller than a 225/35 for the front? I like the look of the champagne GS you posted, I'm hoping to go a little lower then that? Also what brand tire do y'all recommend? Falken and honkooks are getting harder to find....

The gold GS is mine. I had Achilles ATR's in that pic. I would just go with the 225/35, especially since you want to be lower than I was. Your only other option is a 225/30 and I would not do that. I had plenty of stretch with the 225/35. I just caught my fender doing to steep inclines with the wheel turned sharply. A good roll would prevent that.
