Default I'm thinking about getting 20x10" rims for the rear.

I'm trying to figure out if 20x10" rear rims with 275/35/20 or 275/30/20 tires.. can fit on my 93 Lexus GS300 without any rubbing or rolling the fenders? my car is at it's stock height with a knock-off admin bodykit. So can someone please share some info. Thanks.

I had XXR's 20 x 10 +35 and it rubbed a bit with D210 Tanabe coilovers. I'll say get a +40 and you'll be fine.

I think 20x11 looks a bit better but thats IMO.

If he is worried about the offset id say get a wider tire to match the wheel with small sidewall so the tire still looks fat. Im getting 10.5 wide with 18+ offset for my rears and intend to pair that with a 255/45.

Wow thanks guys for the info.. DriftPaRX7 what size tires you have on your 20x11 rims? I'm just curious to know if any rubbing is going on there? The 2x11 rims look great.

I'd say a low offset on 20x11 would do nice with 245's stretched.
