Default 20x9 20x10.5 +25

I've searched already, but was just curious if anyone was running these size rims with these offsets? Would just like to see some pics. TIA

i have 9"+20 and 10.5+25. they will fit, but you will have to do some fender mods to accommodate for the rubbing. i will try to get some pics that show the fittment. i am very pleased with the way the wheels look with these offsets. Mark acutally is running +20 in the rear, which is probably as aggressive as you can go without doing Major fender work.

Mark - you have a fender mole on the rear, correct? poke would be a little more extreme without, yes? can you let the OP know what was necessary to get the wheels to fit propperly? i am intersted myself, since i am still rubbing a bit. i am 'assuming' i will eventually have to shave my rears to eliminate most of the major rubbing. loving the first pic; great spot! hope all is well.

The fender mole allows you to actually bend the lower part of the fender outwards. It will cover this up along with any mistakes made when rolling/pulling. I would not recommend shaving since you can only shave so much before you "break" the weld of the double sided fender, thusly making the fender wall weaker. Roll and pull, but try to keep the flat fender without distorting it. The big challenge is the bumper mounting points.

I would also look for a tire that does not have curb protectors. I have Vredestein and they have a large curb protector, which is why I had to pull so aggressively.

Mark do you think your set up would work with a 285/25 on the rear?

TrafficStar STR's.

No way a 285 will fit on the rear with the setup I'm running.
