Need HELP! Installing 20's on my 2015 GS 350 this week!!
Need HELP! Installing 20's on my 2015 GS 350 this week!! I do not want to lower the car. Does anyone have pics of their GS350 WITH 20S and NOT lowered???? Any help is much appreciated. These are the rims I am getting .. 20X9 front 20X10.5 on the rear.
i wouldnt lower it, im guessing your GS came with factory 18s so your going 2 sizes up which is a pretty substantial, along with lowering it, the ride dynamics will greatly change. I would just put the wheels on.
I was staring at my car today, realized that a drop would be pretty nice...then realized from past experiences that a drop+ new bigger rims = horrendous bumpy rough ride .......heres hoping someone with experience in dropping+bigger rim size please chime in and change my mind. Not keen on dropping car to have to drive 10mph everywhere avoiding pot holes and such, that was a horrendous experience in previous whip
They're similar to the Vossen but I Dnt have Vossen $ and I've been told Vossen quality is slipping especially for the higher prices their pulling. I'll definitely post pics later this week for the rest of you who are in the same boat lol.

here you go, I posted a pic of my GS350 on 20s at stock height. I had my 3GS lowered with tanabe NF210s and my grand prix lowered with Eibach, but kept this car stock height because I wanted the comfortable ride with the bigger rims. At some angles it looks like a 4x4 which sucks and at some angels it looks good. When you ride with people in the car, it balances out. I think if I lower again, it would def be air to maintain the soft cloud ride feel no matter how big the rim.
Lowered on Tanabes with stock wheels: ride is almost identical to stock but with better handling.
Lowered on Tanabes with SSR CV01 20x9 +39, 20x10 +44: ride is stiffer but not harsh (even in sport+ mode, dampening in the F sport is amazing). Slight rub in the fronts only when going over dips at high speed due to low offset. If your offset isn't too aggressive, rubbing would not be an issue. And yes, without a drop, the GS looks like a 4x4. IMO, the 4GS looks better with a drop on stock wheels than big wheels with no drop--but to each their own. Hope this helps.

Nice pic and wheels. But could you post multiple pics at different angles? Maybe a side shot from a few feet away?
