Default One more wheel question...:(

I seached, I really did I'm thinking about doing 20x8.5/32+ and 20x9.5/35+ w/245/35's. I already have the tires on existing rims. I'm pretty sure they will work from what I've read, but just wanted to get some more direct advice.

Car looks good man......I see your point about your wheels. You think the offsets I mentioned will put the wheels flush at stock height? Lowering the car a little is in the future.

I am running 275/30/20 on rear with 20x9.5 35mm offest and 245/35/20 for front with 20x8.5 40mm offest with Tanabe nf210 springs. You will probably need to pull your front fenders and rears should be fine, but go with the 275/30 on rear though.

with your offsets and widths, you don't have to worry about rubbing at stock height.
