**Ace_746** · 03-20-2011, 07:36 PM

I found a great deal on a set of 20x9.5 or 9s cant remember but would i have any problems by not fitting or real bad rubbing

Its just my opinion but from what I've seen, 20" wheels just don't look right on 4th gens.

Well i was looking for some good wheels that were not bulky and tires for my stock wheels with nitto drs and regular nittos in the front to match was 815 and i can get a set of the greg wheels for 900 with mickey thompsons sportsmans on them i was just gonna spend the extra 100 or so and get wheels and tires

It depends on the offset if they will rub or not. I am on my second set of 20s. The first set were 20x8.5 and had some rubbing issues. Now I have staggered 20x8.5 and 20x10 with no rubbing issues.
With that being said, I agree with the above, wheel choice is critical when going with 20s. I have seen several pontiacs that I like, but have yet to see a camaro pull off 20s that I like. Also I highly recommend upgrading to a big brake set up too bc the stock 12" rotors look tiny inside the 20" wheel

They have a +38 offset and it says 6.5 backspace

Got the wheels on tonight i dont have a comp to post pics havent figured out to from my phone yet And they do rub on the rear quarter panels any suggestions

you can roll the lip on the rear fenders if they are rubbing on the outside of the tire. It will give you alittle extra room.
