Ok guys...

18X9 ~30 (high disk)
18X9.5 ~ 28

What tire sizes do you guys suggest to make this work on the 2nd Gen GS?
Car will be lowered on coilovers as much as possible within reason to make this work.

I have to search J but it depends some on the tire and its tread. Some have squeezed 285s rear with no issues. I have seen 295s but I think they modify the rear wheelwell.

As for fronts 245s max are your best bet but there are a couple guys running 255s. I don't think the extra 10mm will help turn in at all.

Are you planning on stretching the tires? neg camber? fender work? You will need some combination of these to fit those rims.

Fronts 235/40/18 BFG GForce or 225/40/18 Falken 452's
Rears 245/35/18 BFG GForce or 235/35/18 Falken 452's

Those will be mild stretch nothing too crazy.
