Default 20" wheels staggered

Hi
I have a GS400 with eibach lowering springs I'm looking to put 20" staggered wheels on it... just wondering what offset I should buy
(will I have to roll the fenders?)
Thanks

Do you know he setup you were running? I want to avoid rolling or flaring fenders, if I can help it, lol

20x9/10 should be okay without fender mods imo

You didnt even mention offsets...



Offsets in the 30's would be safe, i have this doubt you probably wont need to tuck your tires anyway

But i lowered it with eibach lowering springs so im concerned about rubbing
