How low with 20x10.5?

Im looking at getting the Stance SC5 20x10.5 all the way around and wanted to do 255/35-20 tires all the way around so I could still rotate. I've searched around and some say you need to go really low to pull it off and to make it look right with no rub in front?

This is my daily so was trying to be some what conservative with the drop.. starting out with springs. Would G35 Tein H-tech springs be enough?

Ive seen another members G37 dropped on eibachs with SC5 20x10, spacers all the way around (pic attached) and it looks really good and clean but trying to avoid spacers or a 285 rear.

Judging from the pic you posted....Looks like you can get away with 20x10.5 and 255/35 with the Eibach's.

His car is 20x10... wasn't sure if the 10.5 was enough to make it not work.

I was referring to this thread when i was talking about not being low enough and rub https://www.myg37.com/forums/wheels-...ant-drive.html

Seems like he's just referring to issues in the back with the fender bracket and not front rub.

I was trying to figure out the same thing.

Not enough of a drop with a spring replacement makes 10.5 with 255 tires look like

Slammed drop with coils and it looks amazing with 10.5's all around but being a DD would make it hard to live with. I just readjusted my coils to be 25 3/4" all around but I feel it's too low for a DD...

If you can get away with 26" all around then I'll go for it !!!

I'm thinking of going with Stance SC5 10.5 all around with 255/35/20 as well, but not sure if it will rub. Trying to avoid spacers, fender modifications. I think P Casey said you can do 265/30/20 without any issues
