Got a Question for the experts on here:

So if I can run 20x10+8 in the front with a 20mm, would that make that I can "almost" run 20x11-5?

The reason I'm asking is that without the spacers, mine would look "sunk". With 20mm spacer, it'd look almost perfect. And my option is to get larger outer lip which can push it 1" further out, thus making it 20x11 at -5 offsets I believe. Given that I'd still be running same tire size (at 235-30) at super stretch mode, it'd clear?

Practical or not? Please advise. Thanks

I've got SPL front camber kit so I can either go 0.5" to 20x10.5+2 with less camber or as said above.

If you throw on 20mm spacers you'd be at a 20x10.5 -12. Thus, it would be like running a 20x11 +0. If you want a 20x11 -5, you'd need a 25mm spacer.

Correct, I'd have a lil room on the 20mm spacer, that's why I figure an extra 5mm wouldn't hurt (or so I thought :P). Plus, I can only get the outer lips either at 0.5 or 1" extension, so that's why.

eh 11 in the front with that kind of stretch isn't really optimal I mean you can do it but at the end of the day the same kind of look and lip size can be got with a smaller width wheel like a 10 with less than half the trouble and no need to do a stupid stretch

thats just my opinion but to each their own, just work around with camber and fender work and it will fit in

you got the right idea on the numbers you posted (every .5" bigger lip= 6mm off the offset)

Absolutely understandable. But getting just the outer lips would be the cheapest method. Otherwise, I'd got totally different set of barrel to maintain the width and lesser offsets.

Just throwing ideas out there. Might run slightly fatter tires & 0 camber to make up for the "sunkness" feel and look
