20" wheel/tire fitment help
I'm going to try and spec out a set of Work Gnosis CV202s and wanting some expert guidance on width, offset and tire sizing.
http://www.workwheelsusa.com/product...=44&wheel=1009
-I'm going to lower it a little bit on KW3s front and rear
-I absolutely do not want any rubbing at full lock, compression all that jazz
-I absolutely will not roll fenders, pull out fenders or do any sort of adjustment to the stock body to make the setup fit
I do absolutely want the widest width and lip within the limits of my reqs above, particularly in the rear. I love that flush look. I prefer to run Michelin Pilot Sports.
I hear 20x9, 20x10.5 is about the limit. I don't know what tire size, though, as I know the MPSs run chubby (have them on my GT3).
Any ideas? I'd hate to place the order, wait 10 weeks only to find out they weren't sized right.
Thanks!

It'll be really difficult being on 20s and lowered to not rub. Even at stock height, there will be some rubbing on turns and dips. Is having 20s a must? I know it's a great look on the F, but without fender modification and eliminating other parts within the wheel well, it'll be hard to not rub even slightly.

There's gotta be a way. My previous small car rides, E46 M3, 996 C4S, and now 997 GT3 have all run aftermarket wheels and not rubbed at full lock and under compression. All ran custom to them specs.
Without wheel + tire info, hard to nail it on the head. Based on my search here, looks like not many guys are running build-to-order wheels. I'm obviously leaning on Work/vendor as well to lever against their expertise. Thanks for the initial round of input.

I love that pic of your ride from the rear 3/4 view in the other thread. I bet it looks like a spaceship in person. White on black panda look - well done.
