After a week of soul searching, going back and forth! I am now convinced and nothing will change my mind! ( I hope )

Between the CV3's and the VVS083's, I am now convinced the 083's will look better and blend in better on my Mica Red GS. The sucker punch was lkapimp216's post of his 083's on his black beauty!

So the question:

20x9 +32
20x10.5 +39

Can I run 245/35's on the front, and 275/30's on the rears? I am lowered on BCR's and fenders are rolled.

What do you think? I don't slam my cars, they sit with a 1 inch gap which I am happy with!

Can I run 285's at the rears? Should I go for a 30 front/25 rear combo tires?

Your opinions highly appreciated guys!

One more thing concerning the offsets! Just saw this thread again, offsets for 3GS are 38 and 45?

You could run a 30f and 35 rear and be fine with no rubbing but the 245/35 is going to rub on the inside liner.235/30 is the same height and has the same side wall.

No run a 245/30-20f and 285/25-20r this will keep you in spec and have less chance of rubbing I was shaved already when I got these wheels cause I had 22s first but Im pretty sure my offsets will only require minimum fender mods on the rear if any. I love my Vossens but will be moving on to another wheel by end of August, still plan on keeping Vossens as a back up wheel

+1 that's the same setup i have.

So basically, lkapimp216 is running a +32/+39 offset which is more aggressive than the advertised +38/+45 for the 3GS.

Am I correct? Because looking at his pictures, I love the stance and aggression of his wheels! But those are teeny tires @ 9/225-30/20 10.5/245-30/20.

So what offsets do I need to be able to run 245/30's front and 285/25's rear?

Good choice, I have the same set and I'm loving mine! I run +32/+45 with 245/35 and 275/30

The fitment of my wheels was acheived with spacers, my offsets in the pictures I posted in the Vossen 3GS thread are a 20x9 +12 and 20x10.5 +26.5 (I had a spacer milled down 2.5 mm ) I am also running stretched tires a 225/30-20x9 and 245/30-20x10.5 any wider tire on the rear will rub the inner fender but the tire is also still in spec, my car is rwd so running the slightly smaller tire in the front isn t hurting anything and also allows me to be lower in the front. My new front rim is going to be a 9.5 with a 225/30 but will be slightly more aggressive of an offset however my tire will stretch more so I will clear my front fenders while turning. I have Vredestine Sessanta and these tires have been great they are not directional but are inside outside and can be flipped. Running negative camber will eat up the inside but flipping them will give you more miles on the tire. I personally have drove my car all over the place and hit some pretty mean bridge buckles, potholes, and bumps these tires have protected my rims well however I did catch a nasty bump that gave me a titty in the rear tire but my rims are flawless thanks to Vredestines! just my .02 cents!

Really nothing for me to add, great advice in here already.

Are you going with the silver finish or black/silver?

Convinced is good!

I'm going for silver finish. I hope they are in stock and ready to ship out!

So okay, I am still confused with the offsets!

Although yoondog is running 245/35's front and 275/30's rears, his offsets are +32/+45

Which offsets should I get? I think I'm going for 245/30/20 fronts and 285/25/20 rears.

You got any pictures please? Would love to see your setup!

I still wanna drop it maybe another 1/2 to 1 inch. There's a picture posted up there. I will post more up soon. I'm dropped on Tanabe Sustec coilvers and also slightly rubbing on turns and some dips but I'm planning to get my venders rolled and shaved.

Sure you want those? what about the new vossen's coming out at the end of the month?

Awesome, there will be a sick GS riding on Vossens in Bahrain real soon.

if you go for +32/+45 and 245/35 and 275/30, it's overspec, car will run fine but you will likely have rubbing, especially rear. but even front i think you will run into some issues. if you go with 245/30 and 285/25, you will likely be fine, if you still rub in the back, just take off the black plastic trim and you should be good to go

otherwise you will need to play with fenders
