sounds like maybe some 22 or 23x8" slicks would be best for you, unfortuneatly the are for 13's or 15's. 13" Lensos wil fit a GSR, but pretty much no others will. for best results, i'd get the 13's and find some used Lensos on here, or call Matt at Exospeed, as they now produce them. its worth the little extra money, believe me
