Sits aggressive to say the lease I would recommend an 11 in the rear but tires get 305/s.

Here is everything I have already. They are sitting at home waiting for me to get there to install.

Work Gnosis GS2 20x9.5 Front 22 Offset 20x10.5 Rear 18 offset

Michelin Pilot Super Sport 245//35/20
Michelin Pilot Super Sport 275//30/20

What do you guys think? It was all recommended by the shop, so I ordered it all. I just want to make sure it is going to fit and not rub with the Swift Springs.

in the rear you could run a 305 and still add a 5mm spacer.

I'm pretty sure we've covered this.

That setup will be fine as is. Both the front and rear tires will be a tiny bit stretched compared to factory but not much. You only added half an inch in width of the rims and kept factory tire width. The offsets are pretty safe and plenty streetable on the swifts. If you want to be more flush in the rear you can add a spacer like mentioned but it should look good as is. The Pilot Super Sports are great tires. The shop did not do you wrong in your setup. They just leaned you to a slightly conservitive set up for the street. I think once you put them on you will be happy with the setup.

The stretch is not going to be bad enough to have any of the ill effects that you are scared of.

I'm sorry if I offended you......It appeared to me that everyone was telling me what tires I should run, even though I stated I already purchased them. I'm not going to drop another 1000-2000 on another set of tires.... I wanted to make sure that what I already have will work because if not I will return and ask for a refund if the shop I ordered them from told me wrong. I hope that clears things any confusion you might have had. Thanks for your help.
