I test fitted my GS wheels (20x8.5 +38 and 20x8.5 +37 with a 245/35-20 and a 275/30-20) and they rubbed on both the front AND rear...and that's with stock height...it rubbed when the wheels had to tuck under the fender (like going up a driveway at an angle)

The rear should work ok...the front, definitely will rub when it tucks...you need like a 20x9 +42 or +43 or so...the SC can support deep offsets because there is no suspension upright to get in the way...

Wait and get the right offsets, right wheels...

Then it's probably better that you didn't get them anyway.. If you mess one rim up then your stuck....
