Default searched but couldn't find anything -- wheel fitment question

possibly looking at running:

20x10.5 in the rear (+30 rear offset) 275x30x20 rear tire

i am 'dropped' on coilovers but have corrected the camber for the most part so i am wondering if these wheels and tires would fit without a pull of the fenders? if it would work with just fender shave cool, if pull is required i am a little putt off.

thanks,

how much space was left over. just my guess but my camber correction prolly takes up a good 5-10mm prolly closer to 5mm. how much gap did you have left or could you barely fit a piece of paper in there? thanks for the info. i feel much more optimistic about this setup now.

you were tucking right ^ ^ ^?

I am running the same set up in the rear with my quarter shaved, no rubbing issues but i got 245/35/20 for the rears and it is tucked, about less than half of the tire is showing. My cambers isn't corrected either.
