Default 20x9 +15 or +35 for front

I'm going to be ordering 20x9 with 15 or 35 offset for the front and 20x11 for the rear with +15. Now on the fronts how much fender work is needed or the front. What would you go with. Now for tires I was thinking 235/40 and 255/40. I'm on coils to.

Any pics would help to.

really depends on how low you are. remove the plastic fender liners + liner lip + slight roll for sure.

i co sign with +15 offset ..You'll most likely need a slight pull in the rear or just shaved rear fenders depending on how low your gonna sit. i would go with 225/35/20 for the front 255/35/20 for the rear.

I would go with 20x9.5 +15 in the front IMO You'll have better clearance with 225/35/20 tires

With the front width being 9"...if you go +15...it will stick a bit past the fenders, but will look much better than +35.

With the coilovers, drop it to camber it in...should look very nice.

Are all wheel offsets the same for all wheel manufacturers or do some differ? Cause +15 sounds like it would stick out... but idk.
