Unhappy Anyone with 20x8.5" wheels??

I have this problem. I got 20x8.5" wheels with a 35mm offset and with 255/50 tires. I was told that this is the correct size for the RX. The front wheels fit just fine...the back ones hit the springs!!! Then they showed me on their computer system that it has a note that 20x8.5" wheels for the RX may rub in the back!! So they recommended that I take my wheels back to where I got them from and get 10mm offset, but I'm searching for 20x8.5" wheels with a 10mm offset, and I am having a hard time finding them.

Does anyone have 20x8.5" wheels on their RX? What brand wheels do you have? Whats the offset?

I was searching a few other sites online...a few say that the recommended tire size is 255/35's...but America's Tire Co. said that thats not the correct size for plus sizing and it would look a little funny and besides...it would still rub in the back, the wheel just goes in too far.

Can anyone please help me out here?!?! I am sooooo disappointed right now. I was looking forward to having my wheels put on...and its just my luck for something like this to happen. One problem after another whenever I try to do something to my IS300 or my RX300!!!!!!

Thank you in advance for your guys help!!!!!
