Default AWD 3 GS with 20's or 22's without lowering

I've seen some pictures online of awd GS's on 20's and 22's but I can't tell if they were lowered or not. If possible, can some of you kind folks post some pictures of the AWD GS on 20's (or 22's) without being lowered? I love my GS, but hate the factory 17's it came with and im too scared to lower my car with all the issues. Living in ohio, I need the awd. Lol. It's almost to the point where I want to sell my lexus and get an awd A6 since it sits like I would want it. But any pics I requested would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thanks acer0611! That look nice! Sits high but it's not bad. I guess since I know it sits higher because it's awd I'll always notice it. But I'm sure to everyday people, they probably wouldn't really notice it. What size are your tires? Do they rub or anything? And what kind of wheels are those?

Anyone else with pics of non dropped awd' on 20?

The rims are Lexus LFA replicas. If I remember correctly they're 19-8.5 and the tires are 225/35 all around. Some time next week I will be installing 20mm Sage RCA blocks up front to lower it a bit. I'll post some pics after they're installed so you can see difference.

Nice! That's an awd GS? What size are the tires and did it rub bad before you dropped it?
