I know there is a ton of threads on lowering but can't seem to find this specific setup. Has anyone got king springs on 245/35/20 fronts and 275/30/20 on rears and what ones, i just purchased ssl al around but feel like the front will still have a gap.

Most of the people on this forum don't have any taste.

What you need to do is buy raised springs.

You heard it here first.

I want to lower not raise

Don't really understand your question. Gap based on tyre width cannot be fixed by springs, one's on the X plane (side to side) and the other in the Y plane (up and down, springs). Side to side can only be fixed with better offset wheels or wider tyres. Not to mention, you haven't mentioned the wheel width or offset which will be the biggest factor in determining this.

The front offset is 35 and rear is 45

This is dimetime's VF with 20x9.5 +27 wheels with 245/35 and SSLs, your wheels will sit 12mm further in. Should give you some idea.
