It makes your car look more aggressive![action](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/action1.gif)
Your running on really wide tires there... 255/30/20 front and 285/25/20 rear. If you had like a 245/30/20 front and 275/25/20 rear do you think it will still rub? How bad was it?

i forgot to ask abt the offsets at the shop.. i've visited ur public profile.. i think u r runnin' wth stock pads.. mine is 5mm ones so., it's one of the the reason why it's rubbin'.. ya i should hav get 275s.. but i think it'll still rub wth 5mm pads though... thanks..![Big Grin](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Nice job. Another evidence point when I tell people 20s can work, but only with an aggressive drop. I can see where you're rubbing though. Maybe some camber arms would help by intentionally inducing some negative cambering.... of course the trade off is performance and uneven tire wear. Worse case, you could widebody it

20's with 285 in the rears very nice i thought 19's with 265 was the limit without rubbing but damn you went beyond the limit.
