Default perfect size rims

What's up fellas!

i'm back and it's been about 8 months since i've actually been on here.
Well, what would be the perfect size for the THIRD GEN GS. I had a second gen GS and the perfect size for it was 19's.

i'm going for a clean flush look. not HELLA flush. just simple and clean.

That's a hard one bro! You want to do finder mods or not coil overs, air ride or just springs need a little more info from you. I like my setup with 19x9 +6 19x10 +0 225/35/19 all the way around. my finders are rolled pulled in the front. pulled shaved in the rear I was on coils but now air ride.

I like my set up with 19s but with staggered front and rear (245 and 275). I think the GS looks better with 20 inch wheels but then you have to be careful with fender rubbing.

I definitely suggest going 20's as well, unless you can really slam it to the ground on 19's.
