Arrow Eibachs and 20's?

Anyone here done 20's on an Eibach drop with 35 series tires? I am considering this and believe that I can pull it off without fender augmentation but I am not 100% positive. I am not an audiophile with 200 lbs of stereo in the trunk so thats not an obstacle. Linked below is what I would like to get, nothing super expensive and fancy but good enough for me.

I run 20" DPE's with 35 series tires and Eibach Springs all the way around. I had to roll my fenders to get it all to fit but it looks super slick.

What are your widths and offsets?

9" wide in the front and 10" wide in the back. I was told I could do 11" wide in the rear but it was way more money because they'd have to send the wheels to a porsche guy who cuts the wheels and welds in a peice to make them wider, it's not a standard size. I'm really not sure of the offsets. I took my ride to the people at DPE and they had them made for me. I didn't have to tell them anything about offsets, they already knew. When I was ordering them they asked me if I was going to roll my fenders and that they could push them out more if I wanted to, so I did. I guess this implicitly implies that they could have made it fit if I hadn't rolled the fenders but the wheels wouldn't have tucked as nice.
