Im planning ahead for a new summer wheel set up. My oem 20s are getting boring.
Do you think i will have issues with this set up? By the way i am lowered on eibach.

Front: 20x8.5 20mm
Rear: 20x10 25mm

Front: 265/50/20
Rear: 295/45/20
 
On Eibach, you'll be fine. It won't look tucked, but it won't stick out past the fender either. If you were slammed, the fronts might rub with that offset, but on Eibachs, it will not.

Thank You

Nice!!! thats what look im going for

What do you think about the AWD system with different size wheels?? Will i have issues??
 
I have an AWD and staggered wheels, as long as the tire diameters are close enough, it's fine. Your tire sizes should work out without problem.
 
Like shadow said Most 265/50 and 295/45 tire combos are identical in diameter so you'll be fine running those on AWD
 
are u sure about that front wheel offset? thats kinda a deep offset

tire wise ur in the right department, thats what most of the gtr wheel guys use on here
 
+20 isn't a problem on an 8.5" rim with mild lowering. Guys who run the OEM wheels w/ a 25mm spacer are at +15, but w/ an 8" rim (almost equivalent) I'm at +25 on a 9", so almost equivalent as well. My car is low, front tire is even w/ fender and I barely ever rub. The only time I rub is when I hit a big hole and the tire hits the actual fender liner. When I had cut H&R's which are already lower than Eibach, I never rubbed once on that offset. People run 10.5" square setups, so an 8.5" wheel even at +20 isn't going to rub.


I'm probably getting new wheels next spring and based on rough measurements, I could get a 10" wheel up front with a +25 or even +20 offset and still be ok w/ a few small mods.

im not knocking the actual fitment on the car, i know itll work.. but its weird that the front wheel has a deeper offset than the rear.. so i was wonder if the OP posted incorrect offsets?
