Yeah I went all out with Strasse Forged wheels. 4" dish up front with a 6" dish in the rear.

Not sure if it will work, but you should be able to see it on my FB cover pic

OMG! I'm going to be running this same setup except on 20x9.5 front and 20x10.5 rears.

I hope the ride isn't too harsh and bumps too bad.

Front is +20mm and Rear is +15mm.

I talked to Mark at RavSpec and told him that I am dropped on Swifts and want to run stock range camber, nothing too negative. -1.2 to -1.5 rear to save the tires. I wanted the wheels flush with the fender but a little tuck in obviously so I don't rub. Also told him that I would be running 255 front and 305 rears. Also told him that I plan on upgrading to the Akebono sport brakes but not BBK's.

It will depend on your suspension setup and how aggressive your camber settings can be run at and if you DD it. I DD mine.

Im currently still running on 20's 20x9.5 front and 20x10.5 rear. Tires are 245 front and 285 rear. I say still cause they are up for sale. No rubbing only when i go in in a dip at 30+ mph but im crazy like that. They sit pretty good all around.

20x9.5 +6 20x10.5 -12 225/35 255/35. Some camber, rolled fenders in the front and front bumper tabs re-done. No rubbing at all. Chicago roads suck but had these wheels for over a year now and no bends.. I think the step lip helps the strength because I've hit some potholes that made my butthole pucker and they've been fine.
