Stylish have said the following setup will be perfect.

What's your thoughts on

Front: 20 x 9.5" (Concave) +35 running 245/35

Rear: 20x 10 (Deep Concave) +35 running 275/30

35 would be needed on the rear to ensure clearance of the hub due to the deep concave.

With a rear guard roll, this setup allows me to utilise 2 tyres I already have and means I don't have to use stretched tyres.

It will give me a very similar look to the red HSV which is what I'm after with the staggered and concave look.

Confident the front brembos on my redline (i.e Z Series) should clear. I do plan to put brembos on the rear later on so hopefully this also clears.

Thoughts?

In regards to the 275 vertinis they are 20x10 rear and 8.5 fronts

The issue with the 20x10 +32 koya sfo4 with 245s on ssls was the bumper bracket and even that was filed down

Fronts are fine, my only concern would be the rear tyre size but you can and will be able to get it to fit.

Dimetime I've heard of people having issues rubbing on the bumper bracket but personal never had it. I must not have been either low enough or wide enough. It's an easy fix tho

Will a simple rear guard roll and grind bumper tab get me over the line?

20x10 with 275s with anything around +35 to +45 offset seems to need a gaurd roll when your running ssl's, not the end of the world to have the guards rolled. Id just be looking to get anything closer to 45 offset and 275/30r20 tyre and the guards rolled and you can go as low as you want! If you live in Melbourne i can recommend a guy to do your guards

I can't go any higher than +35 with the chosen wheels. I have seen 20x10 with a 275 tyre with no issues after a guard roll so should be ok.

Were you going to suggest this guy?

I run 285/30 rear no rolled guards. You need around +55 rear. Just get 3 piece rims and get the correct offset.

I'm not after the widest wheels or a solution to avoid rolling.

I'm after a particular look (concave / flush / staggered). Willing to roll the guards to achieve it.
