Question Anybody running 20's, 35 F/R offset and lowered?

Is anyone here running on 20's? I'm debating on getting either 19's or 20's. I like the 20's but with and offset of 35 F/R + lowering, I don't know if I need to do a fender mod. I've looked through most threads on the 2 Gen forum but only found one person running the 35 offset front and back. But he was on 19's. Rims are 20x8.5 and 20x10. Any help would be appriciated.

It's for a 2003 GS430 but I'm not lowered yet. I'm also curious to know how low I can go on 20's.....

I personaly think 18's would be too small. The smallest I would go is 19's to fill that wheel gap. Im sure I can go 1.5 in the back and 1.4 or 1.3 in the front with 19's or 20's. My concern is the offset and will I have to shave. I don't really want to cut anything off the car but the rims I'm looking at look sweet.

i am. 35 20x9 front, 37 20x10 rear. 245/35/20 front, 255/35/20 rear. there is a thread in the GS forum about offsets and there are people running 265s in the rear and still not rubbing... type of tire/sidewall profile can make a big difference.

Thanks Benjamin T. I looked at that thread but I guess I just missed it. I'll look again

how low you go is an obvious factor as well... number of passengers in the rear, etc.
