They'll fit, you're gonna have a little stretch going and it's gonna ride like crap though. Not to mention bent rims before you know it. I would recommend going with a 235 minimally, and even then it's still going to be pretty harsh (no sidewall at all). You should still not have any rubbing even if you're lowered unless your car is slammed really hard. Even then it would be very minimal only in the front @ full lock.
these are the rims....will they look good on a SC? Or is 20 inches of wheels way to big for the car?

Just a friendly reminder that if you go for the look and stretch your tires over wider rims, the performance is greatly decreased, including cornering and traction. If you have a powerful engine that can break lose the traction, you'll run into some serious traction loss. The tires need some rubber to grip. Also, handling these stretched wheels by hands will need to be careful or you'll scratch your precious wheels...Ouch! I have 275/30/19 on 9.5" rim and I accidentally dropped the wheel on the flat pavement and guess what, it's scratched even though there's still a little rubber covering the rim's lip.

Can someone please tell me what I would need to do to my sc3 to fit 18x10 +20 and 18x11 +11 wheels? Looking at a set of Work Victrix Kreutzer's ( <3 )
I'm willing to run stretched tires, but don't want to run TOO much -camber sooo let me know if it's possible or if I'm getting in over my head.
I was also wondering what it would take to fit a set of 18x9 +22 18x10.5 +12 Weds Kranze Cerberus's
