thanks for the quick response.
from your knowledge of what you currently have, what is the widest tire you think would work with your setup that would not require fender mods?

the larger the number generally the less lip you have.
i.e. on my current set up it is a +35 and i have a 4.5" lip
+20 would have 5" lip. so the hub, where the bolts go is defined by this offset and how far away it is within the wheel from the hub.

Wheel offset is the how far the hub mounting surface is from the centerline of the wheel in millimeters. Positive offset is toward the outside of the rim. Negative offset is toward the inside of the rim. Do a google search for wheel offset for pics or diagrams.

A 40mm offset on your wheels will fit perfectly, but should tuck in the fender wells a little and you should have no fender modifictions necessary unless you plan on running NASCAR spec tires....

You can run a 20x10 with a 25 et, but you will have to shave out the rear fender and run decently stretched tires(nothing rediculous) and some decent negative camber if you drop the car.
I have -3 degrees on the back of my car with a 19x10 et 20, and before i shaved the rear fenders out, my tires were pretty much sitting on the inner lip of the rear fender. You will get some Rediculous dish with a 25 et, unless they just add more disk in there....

so i could keep everything the same ie.
20x8.5
20x10
245/35/20
275/30/20
faulken fk452
and run offset of 25 with fender mods right?
itll look more flush correct?
edit.
what do you mean by "some decent negative camber if you drop the car."
and i dont think id get more lip or anything cause its a one piece wheel probally just look more flush
20x8.5
20x10
