Tony, I don't know if you have a BBK in the rear or not, but from taking measurement of the rears depending on the way the spokes are on your wheels, a safe offset I would say for non BBK is an +35-40 in the rear. You'll have to let me see what the wheels look like and maybe I can send you the template for measuring offsets. If you don't want others to know what wheels you're going with, just PM me the link or something to the wheels...

Just curious... are you going with EXE Konvex wheels?
I'd do 20x9 et34 and 20x10 et37 or et35.
I don't think 245/35 will work for the front, especially with those other aggresive offsets. Hell, 245/35 didn't work for me in front and the offset is only 35mm.
285/30 will work fine in back for the et35 or et37. You will need to shave the rear fender some.

ok here goes! 20x9 will work on the front with a +35mm offset, a 245 35 20 will work if you are not slam'd. 20x10 with a +35 or 37mm will work for the rear once again the the 285 30 20 will work if not slam'd. how ever if your car droped this is the tire size i would run...front 235 35 20 and rear 275 30 20 it will give a little bit of a streched look, but it shouldnt rub if your slam'd. any more questions p.m. me i do this for a living and im allways down to help a fellow cl member...

For your rear 20 x 10, you won't have any rubbing issues until you reach an offset starting at about +42mm.
From that point you can get more aggressive and go to +35mm which would put your rim lip very close to flush with the outside of the of the fender well.
Any more agressive than +35 and the rim will almost stick out beyond the body and you will then need to do exterior body mods, fender pulling, flaring, etc.
From +42 to +35mm, you will need to shave the inner lip more and more to get the proper clearance.
Following these suggestions, you:
- Will not need to stretch the tire size by going smaller than 275.
- You will not need to add camber to the rear suspension
- You will not rub PERIOD. No matter how low you go.
You can do a search under my screen name and keyword "shaved" or rubbing" , etc. and you can find pics of the threads that I have posted replies on this topic going back several years.
