Another wheel fitment question
I am contemplating whether or not to buy these wheels that I adore. Specs are 20x9.5 +15 245 falken 452 and 20x10.5 +15 falken 452. Very agressive fitment based on the disk type. Now, I am looking to go with HKS Hipermax coilovers. With a fairly decent rideheight, will it be a pain in the butt to fit these on my 2GS?

those are some pretty aggressive offsets. hks coils can slam a car; being on 20's it'd be too easy to tuck wheels. but, also being on 20's on coils, dont know if u can lower the car enough so the wheels will camber in.
i'm lucky with my 19's (conservative offsets), my wheels cambered in enough when i slammed mine-no fender mods.
also, imo, not professional tho
, you're going to need fender mods. GL!

That's pretty aggressive. Are the tires stretched? It's not impossible. Slam the car and shave roll and pull the fenders. You might be able to add more camber with the factory adjustment.

You can get them to work, but you will have to roll, pull, shave and camber the heck out of the car and stretch the tires. I am currently running 20x8.5 +15 in front and I could go another 5mm with my factory camber adjustment maxed to possitive. If you max camber to negative, I don't see why you couldn't make up another 8mm. Same thing with rears.

Okay, I have the exact specs.
Front - 20x9.5 +?, Falken 452 - 245/30/20
Rear - 20x10.5 +?, Falken 452 - 275/30/20
What do you guys think?

Tires are a little fat. Going to be difficult to clear. 452's run a little big too. It's going to take some work but it'll be worth it if you really love those wheels. What kind of wheels are they?
My all time favorite dish wheel. 
Now I'm going to tell you to make them fit.
You'll probably have to go down a few tire sizes, maybe 235 and 245. Shave the rears, roll the fronts, and lower the car as much as you can. If they still don't fit, you'll get away with a slight pull or using factory camber adjustments. Make them work!
