Default Is anyone running 10.5 out back?

Well since no one wants to answer me back about the 3.76 lsd, and I got all this cash saved up, I've decided to start looking at some new wheels... I'm currently running TSW Kyalami 20x8.5 w/ 245/35/20 and 20x10 w/ 285/30/20... but I'm not happy with the lip depth (1.75" up front and 2.75" in the back) Also I want to drop down to 19's so I can come back down to oem specs because I know the 20's are out of spec... so I was looking at the Axis Hiro 19x9.5 and 19x10.5... Has anyone out there been able to fit these on a 2GS? or any wheels in this size for that matter? If so please post up some pics along with specs (size, width, offset, tire size, etc.) I would like to get an idea of what I'm up against if I want to try to make this work... Thanks -Jayson

Wow that is pretty much the stance that I am planning on going for... What size are those wheels?

i was running
19x9.5 +35
19x10.5 +24

i think +17's is a very nice offset all around on those widths though.

ill try n find pics when i get home.

I currently have 20 X 11 Zone 8's in the back - offset is +45. My fenders are shaved ~ 1/2 way down and I'm on Zeal coilovers dropped at least 2 inches ( no gap ).

Do a search.

There are lots and lot of people with 10.5" rears. Look at the wheel sticky if for some reason you can't find what your looking for.
