Default Your thoughts on these wheels?!

I have been looking for new wheels for a while but whenever I found a good looking wheel it was either to agressive or it didn't come in 20's. I finally found a set I really like and they come in 20's too, however they are not the average width you may find on these forums.

The widest they go is 9.5, the setup i'm looking at would be 9.5 et38 in the back and 8.5 et 38 in the front. What are your thoughts on these specs, would it look funny or not or would the wheels be tucked in too much?

Idk why i prefer straight spokes on the GS lol. This would still look sick though! Sorry but i don't really know the offset specs haha

20X8.5 +38 front
20X9.5 +38 rear

its a good setup if you're lowered and still be able to run a nice fat tire setup and have it sit nicely within the fenders. at stock height, it'll probably be flushed in the front and small poke in the rear

I have those same sizes and offsets on my set of Volks. The fronts are perfect, no rubbing whatsoever. However, the rear driver side had an ever so slight rub on the fender lip. The rear passenger side was fine. I'm dropped on Swift springs btw. I solved the problem by rolling the fender lip slightly with a wooden baseball bat. No rubbing now. I bet if I went with 265 instead of 275 tires for the rear, I would've been fine.

Yes go Rays, once you go Rays you never go back! I like Rays and it looks good. This is basically the same size as the GS in Japan obviously not the GS but similar.
