I think it can look just right with the right amount of drop and a body kit. Without a bodykit it looks like a monster truck lol

Ok, how does 20x10 +20 look so nice in the front? I have 20x8.5 +38 in front and they look like they come out that much. Bigger better pics please!

Your car looks great. It's simple and clean. I have a couple of questions...

Did you have to mod your fenders with those specs and what tire sizes are you running on the nt03+m? What shade of yellow or brand of paint did you use for your brake calipers?

The setup is pretty conservative so I didn't have to touch the fenders. As for tires I'm running 245/40/18 in the front, and 265/35/18 in the rear( Whenever I buy new tires I'll get matching sidewall sizes since the front is a little less then half an inch taller). And the paint for the calipers I used is just the generic Duplicolor yellow caliper paint.

That's good to know what sizes fit without modding the fenders. The 265/35/18 is the better pairing with the 245/40/18. 265/40/18 would be .6" taller vs the 35 series is .4" smaller.

That's what I though as well when ordering the tires originally. But as little of a difference it is, it is still slightly noticeable that the front has a taller sidewall when looking at the car from the side.

Are your fenders rolled and pulled? Looks awesome. You've just changed my mind and i'm going 19s now.

That's interesting. I generally think 19s look too big on SCs, but something about the style of those works quite well in that size.

Could be the angle of those shots. Usually, proportion is best seen with a full side-on view. May also be due to the step-lip making the face look smaller. They do look good in those pics though.
