Wheel/tire combo, prob been beat to death
What is the best width/offset 19" wheel/tire combo for the GS? I want them flush, staggered, little to no stretch, no rub and a true alignment, no camber or stance. Will be on C/Os so height will be adjustable.
Thanks in advance!!!

its impossible to be flush with no rub and no stretch, unless your fenders are fully shaved, even then most likely you will rub if you don't camber. unless you ride 4x4 height on stiffest setting.

you can't avoid camber and rub if you want flush. you MUST camber or you will rub, unless u run like high offsets/ narrow wheel but then you won't be flush. And if you want 20" be prepared to run 30 series tires.

No wonder this thread exists, there seems to be a few egos here.

Funny thing is I bet I've got more car experience then both of you combined. I just asked a simple question or two. The german car seen is full of helpful people and I kinda figured here would be the same here. A lot of threads are full of ego filled responses, don't act like you never asked a question without searching. When I read through that wheel thread all I see is a bunch of unanswered wheel fitment questions, unless its something extreme

They gave you advice. You're the douche for not considering their comments or advice. Spend time reading the forum every question you have has been answer. We aren't a people who spoon feed every answer. You even know yourself that this topic has been beaten to death.
As for the "there seems to be a few real dicks" check out other forums. Especially zilvia, we are better establish than most forums out there.

I'm sorry, but whenever I hear the "I got more experience than you, i've got this car this car, etc etc" . I laugh, just because you state that doesn't mean anything. If anything it hurts more than it helps.
One of the reason why most of the questions are unanswer is because they are silly questions. Its has been answered OVER and OVER. Being flush with no rub, no fender work, no camber, no toe or any type of adjustment is nearly impossible. Just read the fitment thread and it'll give you a general idea, once you get what wheel specs you want then ask a specific question not a broad one such as, " I want wheels that are flushed"

Its more so how things were happened. Some people act as if they have never asked without a search. Of the 5 or so years I was on Audizine never once did i tell someone one to use the search button, even if the questions were obviously something asked over and over, thats all. I believe in helping others out instead of coping attitude. I guess its just not the same around here, some people are just to cool I guess. As for the me having knowlegde statement, I've built over 20 some odd cars for myself, helped with several others, been an ASE automotive tech for almost 20 years working on British, German, Japanese, American cars/trucks and even heavy equipment. So more then likely my statement is true. Im not here to start a pissing match, its just rubs me the wrong way. If Im in the wrong I'll man up and I apologize!
