245/35/20 Tires and ADR Propulsion rims

Ok I did do a search before I posted this and cannot seem to find a (CONCRETE) yes or no answer to my question.

I am thinking of getting some 20 inch ADR rims, the style is the propulsion and they have a 35mm offset. I also want to wrap them in 245/35/20 tires.

I have stock height and do not plan on lowering my TL.

Will this set up fit with no rubbing issues?

Thank you....

what are the bolt pattern and hub of the wheels. It will not rub (if fits) if the car is not lowered, but it will look terrible.

A few more things needed. Auto or manual? And what's the width of the rim? I'm assuming 9.5 or 10, given you're getting a 245 tire?

^Why would you put a 245 on a 9.5 or 10" rim? Must be a trend here because I see it pretty often on this board...A 245 is more suited for a 8.5" rim and a 275 for 9.5".


20x8.5 +35 wrapped in 245/35 would fit with no problem. It'll just look bad because of the thinner tires, which makes the wheel gap look even bigger. Don't worry about the hub, these wheels are aftermarket so they will probably have a 73mm hub. Just make sure to use hub rings.

Yes they are 20X8.5. Would I be better off going with 19X8.5 with 245/35/19? or 245/40/19. I asked about the 20's because I have seen many forum members with them, and in my personal opinion I think they look good.

So from what Limited is saying I should have no problems with a 20X8.5 inch rims with a +35 and 245/35/20 tires..

Thanks for your help.

Your problems will come later. When you bend the wheel and damage the tire on a pothole, when everything starts rattling including your teeth, when some guy with truck smokes you… Just read threads when guys having those wheels are rational (rear occasions).
