Finally got my new wheels on and I think I qualify for this thread now.
Running F: 20x8.5 +35 on 245's and R: 20x10 +35 on 295
I am rubbing on the rear fenders so bad I need to trim them.

Don't worry, I removed that sticker on the wheel.



Paired with these beautiful McGards

stick some painters tape on your rear fenders, drive and see where it rubs.... its usually the part where the rear bumper meets the quarter panel...

i didnt trim mine, i had them rolled, and then pulled.

The coupes seem to have more issues w/ the rear bumper bracket, should be a simple trim w/ a dremel from what I've heard. BTW, wheels & drop look very good

Thanks. I love those wheels and they make me feel a little different from all the Vossen guys.
The only downside is that they made my brakes look tiny, BBK maybe? BTW no more rubbing.

Switched my front from 245/40/19 to 265/35/19. I tried to fit a 305/30/19 in the rear but couldn't fit it even with the 15mm pull, the max I can do is 295/30/19 on these wheels.

Rolling shot looks great Purpul.
Tony, you may be promoted to king of the FAT tire thread, looks good all around. I forgot what wheel specs you're running, looks like the additional 5mm for 305s would be a bit too squeeky

Thanks! Wheels are 19x10 +30f and 19x11 +25r.

On a side note, I will have a set of used Michelin PSS 305/30/19 for sale cheap if anyone wants to give them a whirl!

Edit: I realize I had the offsets backwards!
