Those are going to require some major fender work both front and rear and super stretched tires.

I had to trim my rear fenders to clear 19x10.5 +29 which is kind of conservative fitment.

Those VSXX you're looking at are hard though.

damnn thats some wide wheels front and rears, search around see who has what size and offset, base their sizes and offset to yours with a wheel offset calculator, http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp
major fender work will be a given with that offset, more or less depending how stretch the tires.

I will tell you now that those wheels will require about a 2 inch pull on the rear plus some major camber to work. So paint work is a definite.

Yeah there's a thread going on about how bad their rep are right now and their service on wheels that is bad. Not the true info that is stated from their site or sayings.
