Default Is this a correct setup for a 2nd gen GS300?

everytime I ask this question about setup, I always get different replys, anyway's here it goes:
F 20x8.5 w/245/35/20. +35/38 offset. High disk

R 20x10 w/275/30/20. +44/42 offset. Normal disk.

Wheels I am looking at our the Work Equip's, and the Rezax's II

I have ajustable coilovers. JIC, I would like 0 gap, once the wheels are on.

damnit, guys, don't reply him people who don't read my faq gets no reply!!!

hehe, j/k, here you go.

the front and back are all good. if you wanna play safe, get 38 and 44. if you want to look a bit better, get 35 and 42. the front you MIGHT rub a bit on the very edge. the rear you might rub the fender tab but a little bit shaving would solve all problems.

another problem with the setup if if you go 0 gap, the front will have some problems, but that's for everyone with 20s, no offset and stuff can help. you will rub the top of the wheel well pretty bad. me, synergy, and jawnthen all has 20s and we all rub. i modded the fender (top) by using heat gun and push the whole thing up. also on the fender tab (there are two big tab if you look at it), i push them up to.

without doing that, you will rub pretty bad when going to 0 gap on 20s
