Default Recommended tire size for 19's on a 2GS
I have a '98 GS300 with factory 16's right now. I just ordered 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 wheels for the GS. Offset is +35 for both front and back. What size tires would be best for the front and rears?

standard setup, 245/40-18 front, 275/35-18 rear
fat setup, 245/45-18 front, 275/40-18 rear

those are the easy setups and should require little if any mods to make it fit...
