Those tire sizes are ridiculously huge for a 2GS.

^^ Best answer

I'm also running 20x9 and 20x11 with 225/35 and 255/30 and I would say the tire size is perfect.
The front offset is +34 so you can see exactly how it sits
Here is the photo of the drive height


And here is the photo air'd down. You can clearly see there is a lot of room to give. Go +15 and roll the fronts. It makes no sense to have aggressive fit rear with conservative fronts.
