Default is this a good wheel setup for 20's?

i have a 2000 gs300, and i am about to buy some 20's along with bridgestone so3 tires. after reading Rominl's exceptional write up. I learn so much about wheels. However, I do not want to do any modifications such as fender rolling, trimming and/or shaving. i want as little or no rubbing at all. I will be getting coilvers soon. here it goes:

wheel size
front
20x8.5 +38

rear
20x9.5 +38

tires
front
245/35/20

rear
275/30/20

is this setup okay? feel free to add anything.... thank you

I thought you can go little more aggressive on the rear. Also, I would put 285-30-20's for the rear is possible so you have same diameter height on both front and rear tires.

Just my thought.

285 on 9.5 that's too wide imho
