Need help with tire size for 98 gs300

Just got some iforged 20x8.5 and 20x10. Need help with the tire size. I am also goin to run the airrunner suspension just in case that might probably be a factor. Guy at iforged told me 275/30/20 rear and 245/35/20 in front. Is that a good combo? any help would be appreciated.

If you are getting normal (not the traditional VIPstyle) wheel fitment, then those tires will work fine.

But just to let you know, if you get Air Runners. What might look good when it's up might not look so good then it's down. Because the suspension of a GS will camber is the lower it goes. So if it looks "flush" or even just pushed in a little bit, will look like a sunken ship when it's all the way down.
