Im on H&R's with 15's in the backc and its close, but I never sit anyone in the back. Another 5mm I dont think will make that much of a difference and if it does rub it will only rub on the rug part

I agree. With H&R you will probably rub on 20mm, especially if you ever decide to put a little bigger tires.

I think mine was rubbing against the inner wall of the fendor itself & the fendor lining.. it'll depend on your alignment

Good point Sam. See I have the H&R's with 15mm spacers and probally can go to 20mm bc Im running negative camber

you probably wouldn't rub with 20mm if you don't install a camber kit... but that would be foolish.
