245/30/20 would probably be best

Why are you use different size tires on same size of wheels?
I would use 235/35 on all wheels (like felo2081 above). mild stretch

My bad if I didn't clarify. I was wondering what option tire size would be best. A lot of people say run a 245/35 would be great, but you might rub on turns? which I am trying to avoid. But seeing felo2081, it looks great! I didn't know if the 235/35 be a crazy stretch for a 20x10 +20... So im unsure if I should run a 235/35 , 245/35, or a 245/30 on a AWD 3GS

LOL, that's awesome. I can't do to much of a crazy stretch even though I want too; because of the big a** pot holes here in Massachusetts.
So you recommend a 235/35 for my wheel setup? or a 245/35?

235 it's not that stretched. The problem it's that if u go bigger u r going to have to deal with rubbing and having to raise ur car which defeats the point of having coil. I'm on air so I don't have to worry about rubbing but I went with a 235 all around so I can rotate my tire plus it doesn't rub when I'm ridding slammed!
