Nice looking wheels, what size tires and wheels? Front tires are a little big.

Thanks!!!!

20x9 Front 245/35/20
20x10.5 Rear 275/30/20

Ya im rubbing on the wheel liner on sharp turns. Needed to go with a 30 sidewall. Might try to shave down some of the wheel liner to help with that.

Im not lowered yet either. And I have an awd version and I still rub. I rub on tight turns only. Very little rub but it does happen. Cant wait to see your wheels on the car.

Serves me right for not doing a test fit. Runnin garound the past week trying to locate the hubrings for my wheels as it was a odd size 82 -60. Finalloy when I thought everything was together. I go to the shop to get the wheels mounted. What a surprise. The stupid wheels don't clear the caliper. Now I have to go take these rims back and continue my search. These stupid calipers are starting to be a pain in the *** when trying to find rims.

Depending on the drop you get later, you would need to replace the 245/35 for 245/30

Im thinking of doing the tires now lol. This rubbing **** is not cool. Im going to take out the wheel liner this weekend and hope the rub is gone. But if I drop with the blocks and no wheel liner will I still need to roll fenders and cut??? That's the million dollar question
