20" MRR HR6 Staggered Fit Question

I just picked up a 2012 TL with Tech and wanted to put on a new sit of rims. I would like to go with 20" MRR HR6 Staggered 20"x9" 245/35/20 and 20"10.5" 265/30/20 with an Eibach Pro Kit drop. Will they fit without any rubbing issues? Also, is there any other TL's running a similar staggered setup? I have searched but havnt had much luck. Thanks in advance.

10.5 on the back seems rather wide im not 100% sure if that will fit without modification.

Also im not really familiar with staggered setups but is there a reason why your running 35 series on the front and 30 series on the rear?

I Was thinking the same thing, but some rim retailers are telling me they will fit. I see that a guy with M6 wheels had to shave 4mm off the inside of the rear rims. I do not want to do any mods to the rims or the car to make them fit.

Yep, the Eibach's will just cause the OEM struts to fail.

OP, do it right and buy the Tein coil-overs.

I don't want to go coliovers why not Eibach? I have had them on 2 other cars with no problems. What springs for about a 1 inch drop would you recommend?

Go with H&R's they are much better quality - I've heard the Eibach's are far too harsh.

Damaged OEM struts is exactly what happened to a member/friend on AZ with a 3.5 TL.

Get Tein or H&R springs instead.
