Pete if the wheels rub it would be on the lip of the fender not the suspension. If he added a 10 mm spacer it would rub even more....

GSXOTIC is running 19x9.5 +37 in the rear with no rubbibg.......so I think +35 should be ok.

Then I think your only choice would be to get a different offset!!

I'm running 20x10's in the rear with 275/30 Nittos. The offset is (Low disk +38)
I had the little lip trimmed at a shop for $25 each. They cut only 1/4 inch of the lip so there is still about 1/4 left so the fender is still rigid.

No rubbing at all anymore. It only rubbed a little bit to begin with before I had them trimmed...

My fronts never rubbed at all. They're 20x8.5 with 245/35's. Offset is (Hi disk +37)

What does high disk and low disk mean? Also, I don't know that much about wheels but I'm looking to get some, but wouldn't a +35mm offset be less likely to rub on the fender than a +37 mm offset. I thought the larger the number, the more the wheel sticks out.

Thanks CamRen


roller400, no it's the other way around.

The lower the number the more the wheel will stick out.

If my wheels had been around a +44 I'm sure I wouldn't have needed to trim my fenders.

Hi disk and Low disk is the amount of space provided for a BIG Brake setup.
