It will definitely rub the fender. You will surely need to roll it if not pull the fender for it to work on a 9.5 +38 offset on 245 tires.

Actually I think he will probably need Vertex Fenders. Idk if a roll/pull will cut it

I just put these on today, I think they look too small. I'm kinda disappointed and now want to go with 19's. They are 18" Volk VSSX-18x8 up front, with 245/40/18 and rears 18x9 with 275/35/18's OFFSETS 38, thats what the stickers on them read. I want to lower it a little more but need to roll my fenders, they kinda rub cause of the meaty tires. Maybe I'll go with 265 next time if I decide to keep the rims.

i'd have to disagree with QwkSC. I have a 9.5 +35 up front and i have no issues. yes i rolled the fender (no pulling) and i dont run much camber at all.

That's because there is more too it than "will it fit?"

You have to consider
-ride height
-camber
-offset
-width
-tire strech
-how far you think you can roll the fender

To be blunt... I think a 20x9.5 +38 with a 245/30-20 on stock suspension will look... bad.

Putting big wheels on a car with stock ride height, especially a coupe, makes it look all jacked up in the air. I'm just curious as to why would you want to put 20's on without some proper suspension first? You gotta walk before you run, man.

the car already has 20s on stock suspension and looks okay

why do you think it will look bad? I dont have that much wheel gap.

I also have a body kit so i cant have stock wheels or anything like that or it will look really out of place.
