spring refresh suggestions, new wheels + lower?
I haven't bought anything yet, but wanted to see what yall thought about making some changes for this spring:
New wheels which are 20x9.5 +31 and 20x10.5 +41 with 245/35's and 285/30's.
Add RCA blocks to compliment my Espelir springs for another 1.1" to the drop.
Any fender mods needed ya think? Will a light roll in the front be necessary or what?
Thankies!

Wait, if you had 9.5 +31 in front and 10 +41 in back, wouldn't the lip on the front wheel be bigger than the back?
I'm not familiar with this offset stuff and all that, so please don't flame.

heh, i appreciate your honesty. I'm trying to avoid any difficult fender mods personally, so maybe they'll work out for my taste? My old BBS wheels were 18x7.5 with a +42 so to me, these will be aggressive as **** imo. Ya don't think I'll have any rubbing with 9.5 +31 up front though right? I figured the rear would be straight, but no experience on my end. Thanks.

depending on drop and tyre choice 9.5 +31 may rub..
i have 9 +27 with 235/35 and slammed with half rolled guards and mine rubs on lock up driveways due to ride height.
if anything you may need very minor roll...it will not do any damage, its the rears that are bad for it. But you may be fine if you arent all that low

I have 20x9 +38 in front slammed with 225/35/20 and it only rubs when i go up drive way cuz of the height like above post. I dont think you wouldhave problem with front sinc it comes oem rolled a bit already
The rear i have 20x10.5 +30 slammed and with fender shaved it still rubs the inner wheel wells so becareful, the rear tires are 255/35/20, i think if i change to 245/35/20 it wont rub anymore.
