19/20s would be nice, but being in GB might limit your choices.

thanks, i can get 345/25/20 for the rear and matching 285/30/19 for the front.
the easiest to get are toyo t1r
do you know if these are any good ?

do you think the 20" will rub the rear if the car hits bump in road or similar ?

19s with the SRT kit.

Toyos seem to be a good tire, but most like the Nitto Invos. They rock

The 20" in the rear won't rub with a 25 sidewall. If you went to a 30 sidewall like the PS2s you'd have rubbing issues. I had Nittos and 19/20 on my last car and loved them.

thanks, do you know what width rims and what size tyres will be the best for handling and appearance?

 

[hou99gts]

18/19 SRT sizes looks the best to me if they clear your brake setup. Here they are on my GTS (the car isn't that tall, I hadn't driven the car to settle the suspension yet).

I'm running 19/19 Full Chrome SP600's on my "96 B/W and must say the fitment is ideal with the
Stop-Tech BBK.

 

[Simms]

I run 19's all around.

 

[Ricketts]

I'd go 19/20 or 20/20 if it were mine.

+1 for 19 at each corner, but 18 front and 19 rear looks nice also.

this car looks perfect with that wheel set up.
please can you tell me the following

are the front wheels 10" or 11" wide ?

if 11" do they cause stone chips to the car and if so what part of the paintwork ?

what size tires are you using ?

do you think using 20" on the rear would cause any problems?
thanks for your help, Dave.

These look like 20/20 to me. I loved this car.

Ian,

Your GTS looks so dam good, It belongs on a Hallmark Card

 

[Jance GTS]

20's all the way around would be nice but I would be worried about rubbing in the front. That red one looks awesome though!!

 

[GTLaser]

If these are 20/20, that is definitely my next set up.

^^^SO SICK!

19/ 20 combo looks great, but the acceleration factor is diminished. Took a custom ROE SCT Tune to fix that, but still degraded.

Agreed. I don't like solid red GTSs at all but I'd buy one in a heartbeat if I could deck it out like that.

I never thought I liked solid red either 'till seeing the photo. Zoinks! I also now regret buying a third gen.
The second gens look killer.
