I'm putting 20's with the Eibach/Bilstein . Does anyone have any problems when the car is full with passengers ? I've done a search already but want direct answers. Thanks .

You need to be more specific. What size of rim/tire are you putting on? What offset?

If you have 20x7.5 with 215/30/20 tires, even with +30 offset and fully loaded, I don't think your will have any rubbing issue

I have 20x8.5 245/30/20 all around with +38 offset, Bilstein/H&R 1.4" drop. I have no problem at all.

I had that set up on my car briefly when I first put my 20's on, I didnt have any issues at all.

By the way, 20x8.5 +37, 20x10 +44

With the size and offset, you should not have any rubbing problem. But my only concern is the tire may touch the screw of the upper control arm. Since the over all diameter of 20's is 1" taller than stock, the tire will go beyond the upper control arm. With my +38 offset, it's only a couple mm away from the screw. You may have to test fit it to see if it will clear the control arm.
