After market rims on stock suspension
Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone had pics of their G on aftermarket rims with stock suspension (also include size of rims). I just want to see if the gap is really an eye sore. Thanks

Most of the time aftermarket rims tend to magnify the wheel gap, especially if you plus size it.

my gap was very close to the same with the factory 19" vs the 20" aftermarket wheels.
this picture was taken right after the wheels were installed, so the car has settled back down a bit since then...

I'll throw in a few
19x9.5 f tires 245/35/19
19x10.5 r tires 275/35/19
Stock suspension for now...
I don't mind the wheel gap too much, but eventually I'll do a drop.

If you get the proper diameter tires so they are the same as the OEM diameters, the wheel gap will be the same as OEM, but it may look larger than it is because the tire has a thinner sidewall profile.
