Smile Getting new wheel soon.

Did some research came with the following solution:
20" f9.5+38 r10.5+35
245/30/20 front and 255/30/20 rear.

Would this fit with rolled guard or shud i go smaller size on tires width to prevent rub?.

I'm might low my ride by using spring first and would definitely go for coilover or bag in the future.

If you would like to set perfectly flush with around a 2 1/2 inch drop I highly recommend going with a similar set up to mine. You will need fender mods to avoid rubbing. The specs are F 20x9 +22 w/ 245/30-20 R20x10.5 +34 w/ 285/25-20 these are tire specs are the ideal staggered diameter keeping your overall diameter on both wheels within 1% of eachother and factory wheel diameter

Thanks for the advise!
Went to search for your photos. They look real nice. Do you have photo the are closer to your front wheel and rear wheel? wanted to see how close are your wheel to flush.

Is there any other option on the tires? I would like to go more stretched for VIP style look. Me myself prefer poking out the wheel and more aggresive with stretched tires but with only rolled guard. Don't like mods that can't be undo especially on irreplaceable parts ie. rear fender.

Here are a couple if you want to poke out some go like +15 and +30 you ll have like 5mm of poke all the way around, Nitto invo also makes 235/30-20 and 275/25-20 this will give you a slight stretch and help protect your wheel a little more than some of the ridiculously stretched tires out there! BTW you don t have to stretch tires to be VIP! And when they replace the rear fenders they cut it off from the rear roof support. I have also noticed that it isn t real easy to roll our fenders and they crinkle and wrinkle.

Your fitment look awesome!!

But i prefer a bit more aggressive look
How does F 9.5+25 R 10.5+30 sounds? Can i get away from rubbingwith just rolled guard? I don't mind having a bit of negative camber to fit them.

As for the tire, I am thinking of going same tire as MrMark 245-30-20 and 255-30-20. Might get Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus from Tirerack.com. Are the tire spec close to factory wheel diameter?
