well after doing some more digging I found 2 other members with nearly the exact same setup and it worked out just fine. Hopefully it will because I just picked up the tires. Got an INSANE deal on these so I had to get them. Officially will be EXE Flair 20x8.5 ET 20 w/ 255/35/20 and 20x9.5 ET 25 w/ 285/30/20 on H&R Sport springs....cant wait to try it out!

still digging on the 255/35 up front...does anybody know if its safe to run a 1/8" (3.1MM) spacer up front with the factory length lugs? from what I have found I think this size spacer would effectively make my front offset 20x8.5 ET 17ish and would help with the 255 tire...any thoughts??

after swapping out my Style 249s with my stockers for a road trip this weekend I had a chance to examine the hubs and definitely realize a 3mm spacer would not be possible. The hub lips are too small to handle that kind of slide on spacer without it being a hubencentric 5mm+ spacer. I will just have to hope these offsets work out and if not will have to trade down to 245/35 from the 255/35
