Default 20" Rims owners, help!

Need help!
I need to know if I use 20x10 in the rear, will it rub? I am going to tuck my rear and front tires, most likely the rear will be lowered to the rim part. My wheel shop recommend 20x9.5 but I really want 10. Anyone have pictures of their 20" tucked in? My offsets are going to be close to perfect, meaning it won't be inside or it wont be sticking out either.

Thanks for any help!

mmm nice, does it ever rub even the slightest bit? I want to tuck mine more than that . Yours has a nice drop though, i like it. Also, do you have a picture from the back of the rear tires? I would like to see your offset of the rear. What is it by the way?
O also, tire size please?

as long as the offset are proper you can tuck a 10.5" wide wheel. hell, ive tucked a 22x10" wheel under my car with very minor rubbing.. these cars have plenty of room underneath compared to the earlier IS. i would think +43 or higher on a 20x10 with a 285/25/20 or 275/30/20 will be just fine without modifying the fenders. good luck.

oh, and tucking the rear isnt a problem. you'll have more problems tucking the front without rubbing..

hehe I guess if you can tuck a 22, 20 is nothing. I would really like my tires to be close to the fender as much as possible, I was just worried that if Im going to do that, it will cause major rubbing. Thanks for the help guys.
