TXSTYLE is dead on. The stock is 235/45/17 and adding SLIGHTLY taller meat by going to 245/45 is better than getting an even lower profile and filling the wheel well even less.

i thought by going with a wider tire, youll have to use spacers. i dont like how the gs rims look "sunken" in..how can i get it out more to look more aggressive without compensating for the odometer and mileage readings?

I want to know what kind of setup to run too:

I dont really want a big sidewall on the tires because I think that looks bad....but at the same time I want wider tires than the stock 17"...atleast on the rear. I am probably going to go for the Yokohama AVS db2s because of ride comfort and quietness.

Any suggestions on size...or even brand/type? Pictures would be great....and I need to order the tires ASAP

Thanks!
