Default need answer quick about wheel fitment

sorry i dont have time to search i need answers fast since this just sprung up.
i got an opportunity to trade a laptop of mine for a set of rims and i need to know if fitment will be an issue
im horrible with the offsets and knowing what can do what..im sure with time i could figure it out but like said i need to know..well last night would of been good haha


anyway they are 20x8.5 +22 F 20x10 +38 R
they only have one tire so i can do what i need when the time comes but currently the rear has a 275/30 on it

thanks for all the help and Happy Thanksgiving!

Should fit nicely depending on your suspension setup, if you are not too low.

It really depends how low your car is, I'll use a finger-gap for reference. With 245/30 tires up front you may rub on hard dips and corners. For the rear, you could use a 10mm spacer if your fender is roller or cut to be a bit more flush.

Those should actually fit really well- offsets should allow you to run a proper tire

Sorry to threadjack but i'm in a similar boat with the same wheel sizes. So rather then make a new thread...

I'm gonna need new tires soon and am also getting Stance GR+ coilovers too. My current sizes are 20x8.5 +38 with 235/30 and 20x10 +38 with 275/30. What would be a good stretch for a decent drop with said sizes/offsets? Like a 215/35/20 and 225 or 235/35/20? I really don't want to roll/shave my fenders but I understand you gotta pay to play. Thanks.

^, Are you wanting to stretch just because or are you having to stretch for fitment purposes? If you are running with no spacers, then it would be pointless to stretch the tires, since the wheels and tires are not far enough out to rub against anything.

If you are running those offsets as is, I suggest running correctly sized tires, the ones you listed should be just fine.

Well i'm not 100% positive of the offsets but that's what the wheel company told me. +38 front and back give or take. The fronts are sunken in but with the back with edge of the rim is pretty much flush with the fender. I scape as it is with my stock suspension and I can tell once it gets lowered it will rub the lip inside of the wheel well for sure.

I always thought you had lowered your car? Those 20"s really fill up the wheel well.

Its cool the rear doesn't look that low like it would scrape so I'm assuming its the front that scrapes and side pics?
