Teaser 20"x10.5" 5AD S5:F and a question

I had my brother in law polish out the G this weekend and tried on my new wheels. I like the look, but am not so sure about the wheels sticking out so far. I'm not planning on lowering this one, so I'm not sure rubbing the fender will be a problem, although these could kick up some nasty rocks. Should I keep or see if US-Autotech will exchange for a different offset?

kinda aggressive, but i dont think it will come out that much, once you put the car on the ground it will change..

If you stretch the tires and maybe a little camber you will be fine but personally I would not bother.

you might run into pfizzle's problem of having your camber arm rubbing against your inner tire and getting a flat..

+1. Should be fine if you run some negative camber and stretch the tires (something like a 255 out back). I would personally lower it. It would look sweet
