Who says we can't? If u run stretched tires, u can get away with maybe just rolling the fenders up front. I would even consider throwing a 5mm to 10mm spacer just to poke it out a tab.

Yeah I'm just saying that unless you run an aggressive offset With fender mods you're going to run into suspension clearance issus.

im also waitin for the same setup because the wheels i want are 19X8.5 +20 but I'm scared to buy them because I feel like they will poke out too much and I don't want to stretch my tires

if you don't want stretched tires then the 9.5 / 11 setup is definitely not for you

we don't make anything in an 8.5" +20...kind of pointless to run that low of an offset on an 8.5" wheel...if you're gonna go that aggressive, might as well just do a wider wheel.
