20x10?......you are gonna need more than offset my friend. Im guessing you are doing the 20x10 on the rear and what like a 20x9 up front? I would say fender roll and fender pull would be a must and probably some negative camber on front and rear so camber kits....plus not really sure how low you'd be able to go. you should consider going 19" it would be a lot easier and 19s look great

I disagree.
I don't know a lot about wheels. But, I have 20x10.5 in the rear of mine (20x9 up front). No fender rolling or pulling. Fits fine with a 1.3" drop. As for offset, I wanna say I heard someone say 42mm? But, I'm not even certain what that number means.

Maybe that picture is deceiving...or maybe our definition of a lot of fender gap is different. I mean, the fender isn't resting on the rim or anything. I often have 4 people in the car. So, I can't go crazy low.But, I think the rear on this car is perfect. The front however, is a tad higher than I'd like.

I like the wheels too, and yes offset is key key key!!!
I too have 20x10 (offset 37) I run 245/35/20 but I had to roll & pull fender about an inch.

If you get anything higher than a 45 you should be fine. Bu I still recomend a test fit. Most reputable wheel companies will ship 1 wheel to a vendor as long as you take care of shipping there & back.
