Clearance issue

I need some advice before I purchase a new set of wheels.

Would 20 x 8.5" with a 45 or 35mm offset fit on a second gen TL with a 2 inch drop? or would they're be clearance issues? Any input will help, Thanks in advance

20s are to big for our cars. Read the stickies in the tires and wheels subforum.

the 45 offset ones will fit, but your definitely gonna have to cut the tabs and roll the fenders in the rear.... i know 20's sound cool, but their not practical for the 2g tl... if it was a 3rd gen id tell you to go balls deep with the 20's! for your car get a 18 or 19 inch rim for best results all around

You should def be able to fit them with the drop but you will need to roll the rear fenders and cut the tabs.
