Widest wheel front and back?

20x10 and 20x12 rear? doable?

what about:

19x10 and 19x12?

what offsets and tire sizes wouldn't require any fender work? I'm not dropped too low.. RD sport.

I looked into doing a 20x12 on my M3 and it would be extremely tight/not work. I decided against it as I didnt want to risk building it then it not working.

The only reason I even considered it is because ADV.1 has a one piece 20x12 with a really deep concave.

20x10 up front is pretty easy, but that 20x12 will be difficult. It all depends on which size tire you run and if you are ok with a super stretched look. With that being said, a 19x12 would be much easier so you could run a taller sidewall that will give you some more stretch.

Are you trying to run this on OEM camber? Some extra camber can really change things.

So basically 20's 11 or 11.5 depending on the wheel is the widest you can go without problems? 19's can go up to 12's?
