I have the same spec on the rear but with 265/30/20 and -3.9 camber, and still rubbing at the panel/bumper section. How about yours? any rubbing?

If you look Mr Mark has his rear panels flared out so he can have that crazy offset unless you plan on doing body work I suggest not going quite as aggressive!

This is true....I'm suspecting that the rubbing is attibuted to the fact that the offset is higher. I'm running 20x10.5 +20 in the back. I had to roll and pull the crap out of the fenders to fit.

I'm looking to get a set of vossens vvs83 and I was checking out the different color options for the wheels. I've got a glacier frost GS and I'm thinking the best color for it would be the 'black machined'. Anyone have this kind of setup so I can check it out. thanks!

Hello all!!!!!!

New ride 07 350 awd
Tanabe springs
20x8.5 all around Tsw Kyalami +40 offset 5mm spacers
245/35/20 95Y Dunlop Signature I'm in Chicago and need the extra meat on the tires!
Had to massage the calipers a little to get clearance (we are talking *** hairs)...
Repainted calipers...done deal. I didn't realize the spokes went inward instead of flat when i bought them. I was kind of pissed they hit. They barely nicked the very corner of the calipers.
