the 20's height with 285s may be an issue but i'm not 100% since i havent seen/heard many if any people doing that or trying it.

i'm currently running 265/305 set-up on OEM sport rays with zero issues and loads of traction
IDK, I had 255 on 18's, 9.5" wide and offset was +25 after a 10mm spacer and I was sitting nice and flush with camber at oem specs. I think 285's on a 10.5/20" is going to be poking out and rubbing the fender like crazy, unless he goes crazy amounts of negative camber which it sounds like he doesn't want to do.

comes down to wheel offset and how the fitment is. no idea on the exact specs of the wheels but 10.5 up front with anything but perfect offset and whatnot will poke out.
