I have Radenergie R10 20"(dont know what offset is.) I will put 245/35/20 in front and 275/30/20 in rear, is it rubbing?
I'm wating for new tires, so I'm worrying about it. And I think I need to check wheel alignments out because it seems that only inside of tires have got ground
If it rubs, can I roll fenders? and should I check out wheel alignments?
Help,,,,

I model will need low offset, XI model will need higher offset
look at the back of the wheel, sometimes you will find the offset

Offset is very important to know. 20's with OEM offset usually requires 30 profile in the front and 25 in the rear to maintain circumference and avoid rubbing. Stiff ride though

What model car do you have and does it have sport package?

I had a 545 with sport package and I also had the same wheels with the same size tires, (Nitto NT555). When I first put them on, they rubbed a bit over big bumps or with passengers. I rolled the fenders but it would still rub once in a while. I then installed KW V2 coilovers and was able to lower the car and stiffen up the shocks a bit and it eliminated the rubbing.
