Wheel and Tires: What do you think?

Hey guys, I think I found set rims and tires I would like for the right price. Tell me what you guys think if there would be any issues with rubbing, looks, etc. Thanks!

Wheels:
Petrol Vengeance
Front 20x8.5 Offset: 40
Rear 20x10.5 Offset: 40

Tires:
Vredestein Sessanta
Front: 245/35/20
Rear: 275/30/20

I'd get this all for $1750 installed with TPMS. What do you all think? Size, price, rubbing, style, 10.5 too much (they don't make 10")... thanks! PS This is not forever, I'd like to get some dpe's... but not ready to drop $4K on rims just yet

275 is going to look like **** on a 10.5" wheel. I have a 10" wide wheel and had 275's and they were really stretched. Im just got a set of 285's in to replace the 275's. Wheels look nice though.

I have 10.5 in the back and I don't rub. I think the offset is 43. I like the wheels!

Isn't that Wheel Warehouse in Anaheim? If so they are good guys. They have hooked me and my friends up many times over the years. That's where I'm going to get my drop done.

Anyway back on topic. Those wheels look nice. Any idea how much they weigh?

good lookin' wheels. just make sure they don't weigh more than 25-26lbs each or your gas mileage (if you care about it) will suffer.

same weight as the dpe's actually... thanks guys! Working our the details and want to make sure the offsets will work before pulling the trigger. Any input, will 40mm off sets look ok and 8.5 and 10.5 ok to have such a big difference between the front and back?

You could put as much as a 20mm spacer up front if your car is dropped around 2 inches.

If you're keeping the car at the height it is in the pictures then i'd get a 10mm spacer up front.

Do you think all will be flush if I add a 10mm in front? I don't want it sticking out past fender, but don't want too far in. Thanks boss!

if you are lowering your car, get 20mm spacers up front or get wider wheels with lower offset.

They'll fit fine.
You'll need some spacers up front and you'll be set.
At the ride height you're at now, I'd say either 10 or 15mm spacers would be perfect.
