Can a 5x115 fit with adapters or something? Just curious to see if SRT8 300c wheels could fit pretty decently.....
5X115 fit without any adapters.

right now i have both of my rear fenders shaved and im looking to get 2 new rear tires. i currently have 275/35/20 size tire on my 20x10.5 rim. I was wondering if i could fit a 265/30/20 tire on that rim so i could avoid any rubbing issues thx. and im also lowered to no wheel gap.

Yes. 275/30R20 would be the proper fat size, your 35's are too tall

At what offset will it rub? I'm curious cause I descided to go with 245/35R20 on a 10" with offset +20 and streach instead just incase.

I was on a 10.5 +23. With a 265.30.19. I would say that's pretty much the limit. Depending on camber. I had my camber as positive as it would go at that height.

F 225 40 18x8.75 +35
R 255 40 18x9.75 +20

Shave in rear will do? Thanks for the help in advance. Front also has a +20 available but does not seem to be a good idea from the experts opinions I've seen on here.

How can anyone answer that question without knowing the offset?
