Default Fitment/Offset question...

Just wondering. Would this set-up work on a first gen GS300??

Front 20x9, offset +35

Rear 20x10, offset +38

Thanks in advance,

Talking Why?Are you selling your rims?

20*9 in the front with that offset will more than likely rub alot.Especially if the car is lowered.Which brings me back to my first comment.

If you have plans to sell your wheels pm me if you have a price in mind.( I need to start putting money together)I like the style of your wheels and the combo on my gold gs would look sick.But until then, take care of my, I mean your wheels

Seize, I put some 20x9" Kelleners Vsports on mhy 1st Gen one time with 245/35-20 tires and I had no rubbing at all. Since Kelleners are German wheels, I'm almost positive the offset was 35.

My current wheels are 35 offset and I would only rub the fender liner a little when reversiing and turning left!

You must want some SUPER lips front and rear kid!

Seize,

Should be a slam-dunk on the first-gen car if you use 245/35-20 and 275/30-20... you might need to remove the rear fender arch-guard trim to make a little clearance for the tire. My brother is running 19x9 +37 and 19x10 +37 with 245/35-19 and 285/30-19- had to roll the rear fenders just a bit for the 285s.

You should have no rubbing in front at all- the first-gen GS is a bit more wheel-friendly han the second-gen...
