19x9 +27 is pretty aggressive for GS

Here is a pic of 20x8.5 +20 225/35r20 on my gs.It's almost the same with a 9 +27.No neg. camber has been added this is just from the drop of the car.It does not rub and I can turn lock to lock.Hope this helps.

"it depends on the width of the wheel...but the rear is pretty weak...if the rim anywhere between 9-10" wide, you want to have the offset in low +20's. I don't remember what it should have for the front...I think it's somewhere near +25~30 for a 9" wide wheel"

look at my gallery on pics of my 10.5 +41, which is same as 10 +35 with 285/30/20
keep in mind i have michelin tires that's why the tires are more meaty then others.
but you can see how close i am to the fender, and i shaved everything already. and imagine 15mm more sticking out, that's what you will get if you get 10 +20. it's your call. for sure you will have to run stretch tires, and the wheels will be past the fenders imho
bottom line is, what's your definition of fit. how far do you want to go on your car to make them fit? how stretch do you want to run your tires (which also means careful choice of tire brand and model)? what alignment settings you want to go with? do you want the wheel itself to get past the fender?
we have had discussions on these for way too long already, i don't think there is absolute answer for anyone. the above questions will determine everyone's preference already. all i can tell you is, i know my limit and with my setup i can still rub BOTH front and back if i hit bad deep. so personally i don't see myself running much more aggressive setup. what others do, they have their priorities

Here is a pic of gt-7's in 9.5 +24 on the rear.To me it was weak.I am now running a 10 +27 (which is the same offset...)and I am looking to go a lil more.
