No problem with your taste from me, do what you do, but damn man let some other people enjoy their style. We don't all have to be like you
you can technically make almost anything fit, barring the extremes
what fits 'properly' is really subjective, depends on what OP wants to achieve. having said that, i can see where robert_k is coming from.

my suggestion (with what I defined properly as minimal deviation in speedo change) is 245/35 F and 285/30 R -=calculated from hankookv12s and michelin pss=-. However, i really doubt theyll fit. you're gonna have to go for a stretched look as suggested by ganglygoon. i have no experience in this area but i will guarantee you're speedo is gonna be fcked up by about 4%
edit: alternatively, you can run 245/35 (maybe even 255/35) all around -square- which will not negatively impact your speedo, but might cause more ¿overstreer? (not sure if i got it backwards). also, it'll look funky cuz the front will be normal but the rears are gonna be stretched...

I have a 20x11+38 w/a very light strech on a 285. a +20 is going to require quite a bit more stretch and some camber. It is equal on outter position to a 20x10.5 +14, I know diego has run a +15 so ask him what his tire specs were but remember you will have more stretch on an 11 than a 10.5 so you could potentially run a slightly larger tire than his setup.

I don't mind camber at all. Matter of fact, I want some. I don't want -7 or anything but some stance. I'd like the work to be noticeable.

If you tweak the rear enough you can run +0 in the rear wheels even with stock camber arms
