^ almost did lol. My rear left tire started shredding on the highway on my way to a car show, i barely made it back home afterwards, It was making so much noise. I'm running my stock 17"s in the back till my new tire arrives. And my front left tire is down to the wires on the inside too

when my tire shredded they were in spec but what caused the tire wear was my toe being way off before i aligned the car the second time. This were the specs before i aligned it one more time after the drop with S techs

Front caster left 8.5
caster right 8.3

Toe left 1.44
Toe right -1.73

camber left -1.8
camber right -1.5

Rear Toe left -0.48
Toe right 1.30

Those were the specs a few months after getting my alignment done after i dropped my car (before the current second alignment). The alignment was done without a rear camber kit at the time and i hit a few major potholes so that contributed to the specs being way off. Also another thing that worn my tires out alot is that i waited a month to do my alignment after the drop cuz the guy said you gotta wait a month till they fully settle and 2 weeks might not be enough. Not to mention the tires that came with this wheels already had some camber wear in the front but not the rear. The rear got bad ever since the drop.

With a 10.5+20 there's gotta be some stretch for those to fit. We'll see...

There is a stretch, it's just blurry so it makes it hard to see, but it's there....take a look where I marked it and then look back at the original picture and you should be able to see it...the yellow part is the exposed rim.

The shallow depth of field is throwin' it off. It does appear that the part you marked is the exposed rim.
