The Xi vehicles have a different fitment requirement that its rear wheel drive brother. Offset requirements are also completely different as well. So this is why most owners are still going with the tried and true squared setups that have been proven to work well.
If you have any questions, feel free to shoot over a PM!

You can definitely order the Forgestar F14 wheels in 20" sizes with varying offsets and widths. Unless you really know what you're doing though, I'd leave the major work to Forgestar in terms of fitment.

Dude, THIS THREAD EXISTS SOLELY BECAUSE OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU - PEOPLE WHO DO NOT WANT TO LOOK PAST OEM SPECS AND EXPLORE THE REAL SETUP!!! Truth is, there are LOTS of variants OTHER than the OEM spec! Some have been tested by real people in real driving conditions and are proven beyond any doubt to work (or not, for that matter). But you posting comments here that everyone should go "square"... I don't know, why don't you make like a circle and just keep rolling, unless you're willing to think outside your box

You know, if you at least bothered to read this thread before posting some asinine comment like this, I'd probably not mention this, but
