Hi mate my car is 2017 GT lowered and I'm running project 6gr seven spoke wheels 20x10, 35mm offset Front and 20 x11, 50mm offset rear. Rubber is Michelin S4, 275/35 front and 295/35 rear no rubbing. Not a square set up between gives you an idea.

I would also suggest you run 35 profile tyres rather than the 30 profile as this will be closer to your stock rolling tyre diameter and keep your speedo reading correctly and the ABS happy.
I run a similar set up to snake bite with 20 x 9.5 +35 offset front/ 20 x 11 +50 offset rear and Michelin 4s's in 275/35/20 and 295/35/20 tyres and diameters are under 2% difference from stock diameter.
My 2017 is also lowered and also no rubbing or scraping. Another thing to look at is rim offset. I noticed the front ones on the rims you're looking at have got a +22 offset which will put the inside of the rim closer to your suspension. Factory is +45 so you might want to check that out but I think you should be alright.

Hi Mate,
Yeah i think i bought a wrong size of tyres and that’s why I decide to return them. Definitely got some lose. But that’s all i can do. I bought a new set of wheels 20*10 +38 20*11 +50, 275/35 & 305/35. Because car is not lookin very nice with lower springs and stock wheels, unless i put spacer( which i dont prefer)
Hopefully ill get a good flush fitment. But in future i definitely wanna try less offset as much as i can, so i can get decent lip with bit of concave as well.
Thanks for your advice mate.
I didn’t see much updates and new bloke in aussie mustang threads and forum as compared to USA.
cheers

That new combo should sit look pretty good especially with the 305's out the back. Unfortunately, with modern car offsets and big brakes it's hard to get the old school deep dish look but I think you will be happy with the way your turns out. It will definitely look fatter and tougher on the road.

Yeah, The Mustang is a lot more common in the US and there is a big variety of cheap aftermarket parts compared to OZ and a lot of the people in Australia don't really modify their cars much (except for stripes) so Oz mustang forums are a bit dead.
Also Facebook has killed a lot of the good forums with moderators who keep an eye on what's being posted, unlike Facebook where you get all sorts of idiots with bad advice.

Anyway, best of luck with the wheels and glad to be of help
