Default NELOC - GS wheel/tire setup....

Hey wassup everyone...

Doing some research and I was wondering for those with a GS what your setup is. Please include tire size/rim size/ offset / fender mod (yes or no..if yes what - shaved fender/rolled fender/etc.)

here's an example... this is actually my setup right now:

245/35/19 - 19x8.5~+32 - rolled fender
275/30/19 - 19x9.5~+38 - nothing

thanks guys.

Rims will be 18x9 35mm offset, 5x114.3. Tires will probably be 245/40/18 with either no drop or a slight drop.

Thanks nate...i'm trying to remember, is it pretty flush with the body?

Yes, they are flushed with the fender. I did get the repaired after the incident I had posted some pics of on how bad they look. Here they are again.




The company did a great job.

Cool wheels

I was running work wheels 18/8.5 and 18/10 with 15mm front and 25mm rear spacers i think the offset was like 36 front. It was bad in the rear over bumps so i had to work with the rear fenders some. It looked great!
