Default 01 UL on 20x9+35 w/245-35 & 20x10.5+30 w/275-35
Niche Verona on no name tires. Fronts have never scrubbed, even after lowering with sensors. Rears scrub with decent suspension travel, even on high mode. I’ve worn a good groove in so I’m gonna shave a little off the rear hats to change the offset by 10mm or so. Just not ready to mess with hind quarters yet.

You shoulda ran 245/35 on the rear. Then your rubbing problem will go away, with a little shaving on rear fender. Modifications to the fenders is not the end of the world. I don't see why alot of guys get uptight about it. You have to pay to play.

LOLOLOLOL!!!!!! Dude I bought these tires and wheels from a military kid 2 hours from my house off FB marketplace for $ 2 5 0! It was a shot in the dark they would fit at all, so I was supremely excited when they were 10mm(just in the rear) from being the perfect set up. My payment to play has come in the way of shaving two nice grooves at the tread/sidewalk edge and catching up neglected maintenance from the two previous owners.
