They do, its to help prevent rubbing while driving for me. We used spacers to make it flush/poke out a little. I liked the look, its not for everyone but works well for me.

Specs are:
20x9 offset +5, tire 225/30/20
20x10.5 +30, tire 255/30/20



Here's the video they did:

LMAO, GS owners don't get the stretch and poke deal I suppose! I think this looks hard as hell! How big a spacer did you use?

What suspension setup are you running?

Oh snap?! Your still around? lol, yeah I guess its more of a "mature" crowd. Not saying I'm a that young, but I do according to what I want. I'm on K-Sport coilovers.

By far the hottest setup we've done on a GS!

Default Just picked up a set of Vossen Concaves

Ok, I'm convinced that these Vossen VVS-CV2's are the hottest rims on the planet so I went ahead and ordered a set just now with 245-35-20's in the front and 275-30-20's in the rear. I also ordered a set of Tanabe NF springs and a J-spec body kit. I'll post pics in about 2 months when everything is completely installed.

I shouldn't have any issues with rubbing seeing that I'm only going with 20's and I'm not using the DF springs.....I'll let you guys know if I run into issues though.
