From your numbers, it looks like a perfect fit. I dont think you need the 3mm spacers unless your wheels are very concave... with the 3mm spacers, your rear offest will be +52mm so it's a close fitment in the rear with 20 inch.

Stock suspension? That makes a difference too.

If you hit a hard bump, yes it will rub. Otherwise you're fine (if you're on stock suspension). Also with 10 offset and 3mm spacer your rear will stick out quite a bit. I have 9.5 with no spacer and it's flush against the fender. Personally I hate the rear tires sticking out beyond the body, looks ghetto, but to each his own. 8.5 in the front should be fine, I have the same.

my wife bananas! :D
should work out great. you can always not use the spacers afterwards.

since you are in toronto, i suggest you let me check out your car first .. and then after you install the wheels
