Need wheel fitment advice
Looking to get a good fitment on my 2015 AWD base GS350 so far I think I’m going to go with RSR super down springs and some 20x8.5 or 20x9 with a +35 offset squared. 245/30/20 for the tires. But not sure what would get flush appearance and it’s minimal wheel gap on springs. Anyone recommend a better offset or what tire size would be optimal? Not looking to roll fenders or cut anything up. Also going with a squared set up, not sure if I could do spacers in the back to get a better look. Need help.
I'm currently new to the GS scene, but from my experience. I'd recommend a 35 series tire just so your wheels have more protection, but for flushed wise you may want to lower the car first before you buy tires and wheels. Always do suspension first or you'll regret getting wheels that will not work with your drop, trust me I spent way too much money on wheels and learned the hard way 
Lowering a car will cause the wheels to angle inward with some camber, so your "flushed" fitment may end up being tucked. If they end up tucked then you can either go for spacers or different wheel specs. But I highly recommend lowering the car on factory wheels first before you make a mistake of wrong tire sizes or wheels specs. It's so you can also see if you have any potential rubbing issues. Just my advice since I had a G37 with 20x9 +25 all around without a drop, then I lowered the car and had TONS of rubbing issues.

100% always solid to do a drop first then wheels.
