You think 20's will fit

I found a set of rims I want there

20x8.5 +25 F
20x10 + 25 R

the problem is I have tanabe springs on my car and it's dropped 1.5in all the way around...

I am scared if I get 20's they will rub hard core and I don't want to role my fenders...

what you guys think?????

Rear: 275/30/20

I can change it up a bit if I need to make them fit

With that tire size and offset you will be fine on the front and close on the back but shouldn't have to roll the fenders, your added negetive camber with that drop will help.

It should fit without much or any work at all. I have a set of 20x9.5+10 and 20x10.5+ 0 coming in, that will need a little bit of work.

255/35 may be a little wide for 8.5 The thicker sidewall may take away from your steering response. Just stick with 245s
