We recommend
20x9 f | 20x 10.5 rear
245/30/20 | 285/25/20 rear
offsets are your choice. For the OEM look and what I have on my 450h
+38 | +45 rear

Hope that helps

Just order a set of silver cv3 20x9 +38, 20x10.5 +45 and wonder if 245-35 and 285-30 Hankook V12s will work without rubbing? Reasons I wanna go with these is bec I'd prefer more cushion for the wheels and don't like stretched look. I'm planning to drop it 1.3 in front, 1.2 in rear with Eibach. Anybody got Eibach on their 3GS and can give me reviews on them?
Thanks

with 285/30/20 you will rub very likely because it's 1" overspec

You will rub 100%, I had Eibach's and replaced them with BC Racing Coilovers and had my fenders rolled too! And I'm only running 19's.

No, provided you go with +45 rear offset. Also, with springs.. you run the chance of topping out under load.
