The 315mpss are a wide tire we ended up doing a little hacking to get them to not poke. I would go with a more narrow 315 or a 305 if I didn't have the ability to modify the qtr to fit.

Man these wheels look so good.
I was thinking about ordering a set and running 315/35/20's on the back because the Steeda wheels I had were 20x11 +45mm with a 315 and they didnt stick out but now I'm a little worried after looking cjb08 post.

I think the tire brand makes a big diff. Michelins are much wider than the nt05 315/35 I also have. I Also have a steeda spyder 20x11 and these sit further outside than those do because if the concave. With any other tire I think it would be ok or you could just go 305.

I believe they have to be 20x11 +55. A +45 on a 20x11 would be well outside the fender.

A 20x10.5 with a 295 or 305 is really the "perfect" fitment. You can definitely go with 315's as posted but you will have a very slight poke outside the rear fenders depending on tire brand.
