Default Ordered: 20" All Chrome 3-Piece Staggered GFG Beverly Hills

I was all set today to order the 20" Lexion Type 203 in all chrome and wait 2-3 months, possibly more for my new '06 Blk/Blk GS 430 when I decided to go big time and step up to the plate and go with the NEW GFG's Beverly Hills in 20" staggered fitment 20 x 8.5 fronts and 20 x 10.0 rears in ALL CHROME. I was debating on the black face with chrome lip version, but decided that once I tinted the windows 20%, that the car would just be too dark with a black faced wheel. Placed the order today, was told 2-4 weeks. I can't wait. What do you guys think?

I tried to include a pic in this thread, but it was too big. Here's the link to the GFG Beverly Hills.

Probably Toyo Proxes T1-S: 245/35/20 front, 275/30/20 rear.

Unless it looks like there's a lot of room, I'll do: 255/30/20 front, 285/30/20 rear

I hope there is more room to do the larger size tires.

My wheels have been built and were shipped out from the manufacturer today. I should have them some time next week. Question is: Do I run 245/3520 (f) & 275/30/20 (r) Toyo Proxes T1-s's or 255/30/20 (f) & 285/30/20 (r), and what brand?

What options do you have (if any yet) for dropping the car......its great that wheels are available...but without dropping the car...it will not look its optimum.

Honestly, I don't think that I will drop it. I live in Michigan, and the roads here are the worst in the US. Driving on 20's is hard enough, what with all the potholes and cracks and speedbumps and things of that sort. I will wait a see after I put the new rims/tires on it to see how it looks, then wait an see what modifications become available in the months to come.
