Question for a 20x10 - 20x10.5 setup

Hey guys,

I'm very close to pulling the trigger on these wheels for my coupe-s.

http://www.wheelfire.com/scontent/Wh...805&CheckFit=1

I want to go with a 20x10 for the front and 20x10.5 on the back to avoid the flat wheel look at the front.
I've been doing a lot of searching and I have a good idea of what tires to run but would like to get a direct confirmation on the proper tire fit.

I still have to confirm with the website what offsets those Niche Targa rims have (just says MED/HPO) but I'm assuming right now that they are 35 or 40 ET. (I'll prob use spacers to get them outside a bit more if needed, but I'm not going for hellaflush )
I will have the Eibach spring kit installed as well with these.

So to the main question/concern:
I think I want the front offset to end up in 30-35 range
My idea was to run the front with a 275/30/20 and the rear a 285/30/20.
I'm not worried about the rear so much as the front,

Is the 30 series sidewall too thin for a front tire? Should I go with a 265/35/20 in the front to avoid rubbing with a 20x10 - 32?

Thanks in advance!
Chris

I wouldn't go w/ a taller front tire, it won't look right. The 30 series diameter on a 275 is about the same as a 35 series on a 245. Since you're so close in wheel size you might just consider going square, it will look plenty aggressive w/ those wide wheels & tires. A 10" running 275s all around would be a workable plan. I'm sure you've seen this thread but just in case~

Yeah, I've been thinking about the all 10's setup as well, I just wanted the most amount of concave in the back, hence the 10.5. Not sure how much of a difference visibly it is on that wheel though..still trying to decide on that.
But definitely a 275/30/20 it is.
Thanks Blnewt!
