At stock height it will appear pretty flush. If dropped you can do up to 10mm I think.

Im running 20x10.5 +10 with a 15mm spacer which puts me at -5 and im dropped.

My fitment is really tight, but somehow it doesnt rub... it seems to camber in at just the write angle to miss the fender. But you also have to take into consideration how meaty your tires are.

Here is a pic of my fitment right after I had new tires put on.

Im running a 285/30/-r20 on it also.

If you aren't low then it will stick out even further.

That's a tight fit wow. I'm on H&R springs, do I'm sitting at least 1.5 inches lower than stock. I'll also be running 275/30 on rear. Guess I'll have to put them on, see what kinda spacing I'm working with, get the spacers then an alignment.

I'm also at -5 on a 275/35/19 10.5 rim and it's perfect.

So I should be fine with a 15mm spacer which will put me at 0 offset ESP since I'm dropped...

You should have no problems, and there's nothing a lil camber can't fix

Here's -5 tucking a little bit of tire.
