lot of people on here use the Tanabe DF210 springs, including myself. When i had 20s the springs worked fine, no rubbing or anything. they are fairly cheap, so i would go with those

No rubbing at all the wheels were a 20X8.5 offset + 40 with a 225 35 20 in that pic I even had a 20mm spacer on the rears. The front I had to trim a little off the fender liner and that was it.
