ASANTI AF135 2 piece WHEELS 20

I am looking at Asanti AF135 2 piece 20, what's the major difference between 2 and 3 piece?

Offeset for front is 20, and 25 rear, is this right?

Thinking about running 245/35/20 and 275//30/20 ( will this rub?)
or
255/30/20 and 305/25/20 (is this ride rough?)

any advice is greatly appreciated.

My lowenharts are 255 in front and 305 in rear and fit perfectly. The rear looks so great with the huge lip and is exactly flush with the fender....exact offset for the SL. If the offset is ok then you wont rub even if lowered all the way. I also had 245/275 and the ride was pretty much the same bump wise...just not as stiff. Go with a 305 in the rear for sure. It looks SO SO SO SO SO much better.

I have 255s front and 305s in the rear as well. No problems and Cy is right, they look great.

Difference is that a 2 piece = 1 piece rim+forged center, 3 piece= 2 piece rim+forged center.
