Default 20s on a gs300

I recently bought 20inch mmr gt1 rims. the front 2 are 20x9.5 and the back are 20x10. can anyone tell me if these will fit without any fender or camber adjustments? and will they rub? if they do require adjustments, what will i have to do to make them fit? I plan on getting springs as well to drop it once i have the rims on. will they rub then? and will i need to make more adjustments to make them fit after dropping my car?

At stock height they will fit know problem. Depending on how low you want to go, it should be ok as long as you are not trying to dump it. Your going to have run a conservative drop, assuming you don't want to shave/roll your fenders and stretch your tires.

it depends on ur offset , i have 20x8.5 20x10 +36+43 offset maya mrs n they fit without any mods and im pretty low on tein ha coilovers,tires r 245/30 275/30 but i bought them with those tires n i messed up my passenger fender while turnin up a driveway so i think i would go with a lil more stretched like 225/35 in front or 235/30

i have 20 x 8.5 and 20 x 9.5 with a +31 offset and I had to Cut the rear fenders because it was rubbing on every bump on the freeway. My car isnt even lowered either ! Im runnng 235/30 and 255/30. But like someone said before depends on your offset.

More then likly on 20's youll need to roll onthe fronts and cut the rears. Good luck

i have the same rims. but i think ur fronts are 20x8.5 not 9.5 unless they are absolutely new fitments.

i have the car dropped to almost no finger gap, rolled fenders, and alignment is as close to oem spec as possible. the +35 on fronts and +43 on the rear fit with no mods.

just tried putting on a 15mm spacer on the front, 20x8.5 +20 on oem alignment spec will rub. +15 might work though.

current setup, 20x8.5 +30 245/30/20 and 20x10 +18 275/30/20, with the use of spacers, oem alignment spec, no rub.
