Blacks Series widebody wheel fitment

Hi folks, recently bought a black series kit, and need to order wheels. looking for a flush fitment (no poke, and no stretched tires)

The wheels I am looking into are a set of Work multi piece wheels, 20x10 and 20x11.5 (sizing can range from 10-11.5" widths, with offsets ranging from +40 to -30mm)

for all you widebody guys, please chime in with your experience/knowledge. thank you!

My car has a wide body, it has 20 on the front and 21 on the rear, I also
have 1 inch spacer front and 2 inch spacer back. I have been told to throw
away the spacers and buy wide wheels. The offset is ET30 I have been
told, and I am going to put 20 on the back.It is quite a job finding wheels
11-13 inches wide with the right offset and looking good. If you discover some wheels please post them and I will do the same.

yes i would throw away the spacers and get a proper offset. from what I was told it looks like I will need somewhere around -5 front (for a 10" wide wheel) and around a -30 for a 12" wheel. how wide are your wheels? if your running a 2" spacer out back, it seems your be right around the -21mm offset range
