20s on c280
Do you guys think it would be possible to fit 20x8.5 rims all around on a 94 c280?

20x8.5
5x112 bolt
et 38mm
im not sure of exact backspacing

and tire suggestions if it will fit to minimize rub
(i am willing to roll fenders)

also if it wouldnt fit, would machining or using spacers work?

i really need to find out soon, so if u have comments please IM me on AIM: either at SUPRANBENZ or TOYO183BIGBLOK

thanks alot

it should be with a low profile tire and fenders rolled. the camber is going to be crazy. why would you want to though?

im pretty sure that you can fit dubs on the rear but it's going to be a pain in the front unless u dont lower your car.

renntech...
If you do decide to try to drop it, or even want to fix your camber, try Renntech. They have a great camber kitonly other things I can suggest, were mentioned- roll fenders, different sping pads, and H&R wheel spacers might be a good idea to avoid rubbing. It will be tough, but I think you can pull 20's, and if you do, it'll look real nice.- just make sure you post a pic- out,
