Wheel Offset Question

Does anyone know if this rear spec will fit?

20" x 10" +42 with 275/30/20


I'd imagine I need a 10mm spacer but will it work without the spacer? Or will it push in too much? Not a big fan of spacers.

The fronts are 20" x 8.5" +25 245/35/20 which im sure are fine.

Fronts are fine.
Rears MAY rub under certain conditions (turning or while in sport suspension mode).

I just did this exact scenario and I rubbed; barely, but I rubbed. I put in 10mm spacers and its all good.

I was hoping to not go the spacer route. I've always had bad luck with them in the past.

Thanks for the reply! I think I'll pass on these rims.

BTW looks like you're looking for a decently priced lowering module. Have you researched ProgRama?

I have the Renntech V2 w/ remote in my car right now and it's basically a ProgRama module, just rebranded.

I'll look into that. Thanks.
What kind or bad luck did you have? Vibration? Breakage?
Its the first time I have ever put spacers on any vehicle I've had.

Mostly vibration at certain speeds (60km/h, 120km/h).

I had to take off the wheel and reseat the spacers. After that the vibration went away.

I like to have perfect fitment without any addons.
