With Eibachs being a very mild drop it will still look great. Up to you man, i personally would go 20s but if you looking to stay with stock suspension then wait for the 19s CV3s, should be here next month!

We have a G on CV1s that comes into our dealership all the time and its on stock suspension. Doesn't look bad at all. I thought stock suspension with 20s would look horrible, and it looks odd sometimes in pictures I see on here, but in person it wasn't really that bad. Yes, a drop would make it look much better, but its not as horrible as everyone makes it seem. If its still in the shop when I get to work in the morning, I'll try to get a picture, but pictures won't do it justice. IIRC hes on 255/30-20 and 285/30-20

I decided for 20". You should decide what you really wants. I never will drop my car, because Its my daily drive and the roads are in very poor shape.

Its a Seibon TS carbon fiber hood. The fit is ok, like 98-99%. I have some more pictures, I will post them later (I want to learn how to do it correctly. This first attempt only appeared as links)

Not sure if it's because of the angle of the pictures, but the 20s actually don't look as bad as I thought. My G came with the 18" journey wheels and it looked horrible with the stock suspension bc of the wheel gap...especially since the front was about .5" higher than the back. From the pictures it looks like the gap in the front and back is about even.

Seeing that G on the CV1s in our shop, in person, 20s look fine on stock suspension. I thought it would look horrible too, but it actually doesn't. And you're only going up in size an inch. It's not like your throwing 24s on it.
