Guys with AFtermarket wheels + aggressive offsets Please COME IN !

Im getting a GREAT deal on some Rennen Wheels, They came off a CLS55 ( I think )

The Specs are

20 X 8.5 +20
20 X 10.5 + 20

Im thinking we cant Fit +20 on the Rear of our cars can we ? I dont mind a stretch on the tire... but After reading up a bit here looks like a +20 in the front would be OK with a stretch but Dont see anything about the Rear..

Anyone running a setup like this ??

Should I buy or let it pass?

They will work but you will need 35 or 30 series tires. And if you are lowered they will rub

I have to check offset. but the width of the rear rim is 20x10.5 and its very aggressive poke right now I'm running 255 35 20 tire on the rear and with WOT it will rub a little.
The rim itself sticks out about 1"

one car at a time
^^ Why ???? Obviously you like the look, but I think it really makes the car look cheap and you are not helping performance or ride quality with the tire setup either...

Here you go:


I just need to dump it and it'll look better, but I'm hesitant to do so because of the terrible SF roads.

not a fan of dropping down to skinnier tires to fit low offset wheels. some people should have just picked up an e350 to pimp out with stretched tires. honestly it can almost be dangerous wot with skinny stretched tires, watch out! haha. although maybe the 20s will slow the car down due to weight too even with proper offsets and tires. but they look hott yoo!
