Hey guys, what would I have to do to get some 20 x 8.5 +12 on the back of my GS?

Thanks,
Elliott

PS: Please let me know a cost estimate.

Sorry for the double post I just really need to know!

while the offsets are aggressive the widths are not.

you shouldn't have a problem.

I would say it's equivalent to a 9.5 width on regular offset (30's)
most folks run 10 width on rear.

you sure you don't wanna run 19's

20x8.5 +12 offset would translate to a 20x10 +31 offset

Depending on the tire brand and size you will use, you might just need to shave the fender lip.

Can I do that myself? Sorry Im a newb to wheels and sizing stuff.

Will I look like a fool with such a small width wheel and very aggressive offset?

I have to ask, what are the fronts?

I don't know if I would say fool, but I've always been partial to a nice staggered set up like 9 front 10,10.5 rear.

yup i agree, with the right tire, you should be ok, need to shave the whole fenders though imho

take off that black trim around the fender. and then get a belt sander, rough sand paper like 50 or 60, and just grind it all the way

I think it will look good on all angles except one, which is the lower rear. For having such an aggressive offset, it's going to look like it has skinny tires. I bet not a lot of people will notice this anyways.

Will the front fit good V8_Aristo?

V8_Aristo

Yup, no mods needed.

Sweet! So I think ima get these.

well personally, if it's the same widths, i would just get the same offset front and back. rear would be inset but it looks weird being skinny to me. i would just try to get wide setup for rear if possible of course
