Running 245/35/20 up front

Can someone help me out-

Is anyone doing this?
Do you think I will run into rubbing issues

245/35/20 all around with 38mm offset

don't do it, I saw 245/35/20 in person and it doesn't look pretty, it looks HUGE.

im running 245/35/20 up front with a front offset of 32. They rubbed but once i used the heat gun to mold the fenders there is minimal rubbing. I used 245/35/20 in the back too and there slightly stretched on a 20x9.5 rim and i have had no issues what so ever with the rear. if you are planning on dropping the car i would go with something smaller like a 235/35/20.

yeah 245/35/20 will look so thick, but I guess it depends how aggressive your offsets are. Im on 245/30 and im rubbing (as in cutting the tires) for the front.
