Default 1st Gen GS to SC430 20" Wheel Offsets?

Hopefully this hasn't been asked before, but I did search:

I have a 1st Gen GS 300 on 17" with a Tanabe 1.8 - 2.0" drop. I am thinking about upgrading my wheels to 20". From what I understand the best offset on my GS is 35mm which could work on all four wheels.

I plan on getting a SC 430 in less than a year. The wheels I have picked for my GS will also look good on the SC. However, I would prefer a staggered wheel on the SC. If possible, what offset will look good for both the GS and the SC in both staggered and non staggared configurations?

When I get the SC I will put the 17s back on the GS.

Thanks,

well the thing is, anything that fits on the gs, they are going to be on the conservative side for the sc430, by quite a bit as well. so that's the catch

You might want to think about some spacers.
