06-07 20" rim offset..need your help!
Hey all... we are looking at some 20's for our 06 SS. I noticed most everyone runs a +35 to 45 offset on their wheels for these cars. What I wanna know is... if I go with a +15 offset will I have a fitment issue with the rim itself? anybody?If i am correct the wheel should have more clearance to the inside and less to the out. If the tire is correctly fitted I dont think it will rub the fender lip. anyone???? Tire size is 245/35/20. I havesent the question to a few wheel dealers but haven't heard back yet. Hopefully someone here knows.

I have gottenan answer to this question. Hopefully it will help others on this topic for their 06-07 Monte's. These particular year cars require a minimum of +35 wheel offset. Any less will interfere with the brakes and or spindle. The plus(+) offset is generally seen by curvature in the center section of the wheel.This enables the wheel to curve back towardthe caliper/spindle and clear it. Flat centered wheels are considered0 offsets such as what would go on RWD vehicles.The higher the offset the more curvature to the center of the wheel.Hope that makes some sense...lol

We found these wheels for a low price of $525 plus shipping for 4 20X8.5's For the price I love em. What do you all think? Looks similar to what comes on the Nascar Editions.Should look at home on ours.
