20" and H&R Springs

Anyone out there with 20" wheels lowered on H&R springs? I'd love to here your reviews and see some pics! Mostly wondering if you have any rubbing issues, what offsets

Default 20" and H&R Springs

Anyone out there with 20" wheels lowered on H&R springs? I'd love to here your reviews and see some pics! Mostly wondering if you have any rubbing issues, what offsets you're running and if you're able to return the car back to stock camber.

kinda depends on the drop, and H&R are an agressive drop.Running H&R and hankooks 275/35/19 fronts and 295/35/19 rears with no rubbing but its close. A wider tire with 20s and spacers might not clear.

I'm on H&Rs now. I had 19" all summer just wondering if I can make 20" work.

when i was considering 20s. i called H&R to get some insight but they were a little vague telling me about tire size and measurements i needed to take. hope someone chimes in with that set up.

Im running 20x11.5 - 305/25R20 and 20x9.5 -255/30R20
Front is +22 and rear is +16, they fit flush. h&r springs, i cut off a half inch off the back spring mount, made the car more level.
at this time i hadnt modded the rear spring mount, i found the rear to sit a little to high.

You wont rub at all, My front wheel could use about 4-5 mm more, so +15 would be dead on, atleast i think. For the rears +10 would be just about be spot on!
I have no rubing what so ever, My camber is -2.5 in the rear and -2.3 right Front and-1.9 left front, I was able to adjust it to -2.5 in the rear with the stock camber arms and i got my toe dead on aswell!
The front wasnt touched, as i dont have adjsutable upper control arms.
Wiggins, Go 305/25R20 in the rear. If i was gonna do it all over again, i woulda went 275/30r20 in the front to keep it closer to stock stagger, but not sure how itll fit.
but go 30525r20, Little wider in the rear and itll look better.

Thanks for the info man! You've really helped me out. I've added to rep for ya. I'll post some pictures in a few months once I get me new wheels installed. If you get a chance to take some pictures anytime soon with the adjusted rear suspension it would be appreciated, this may be a spring project for me.

Well you could, but then the front would be a 35/r20, with the h&r's you dont have room for the 255/35r20. atleast on my car i know the 35 series wouldnt work well.
and i wouldnt run 255/30r20 and 305/30r20, ur Overall Dia. is gonna be off.
