Default Correct Offset Gs300 20" Fat Setup

I ordered a set of IForged wheels and I need to give them an offset. I have8.5" in the front and 10" in the rear. I dont plan on gettin any brake upgrades but I do want coilovers in the next 2 months. I wanted a 255/35/20 up front and a 285/30/20 in back. Is this possible with the correct offset. Also would it work with some TIEN CS? Any info would be great. I dont want to be stuck making a newbie mistake.

6 links for you in that thread. I don't think the fat 20" setup will work. There is another post on down about running the 255 up front and it rubs.

20s are already slightly over ~3% taller than stock, even at stock height with no lowering. it would be too tall if you want to run the "fat" set up..and they will rub..no recommended

The best offsets for you are: +35 front and +48 rear. With +48 in the back, you can go 285/30/20 wothout rubbing.

The guy vince told me I should get +41 in the front and +48 in the rear. What offset did you get Manaray? He said you got big brakes. So the front I should go with a 245/35/20 in the back maybe a 285/30/20.
