We all believe in making your car fit the wheels...i think you will def. need to shave the rear fender, and strech the tires at least...i'm sure you'll get more info soon..

Is it the width and offset that makes the difference? 20x9f and 20x10r would definitely need some work or would it depend solely on the offset?

Yeah, you will definitely need to do some shaving with that offset and not to mention mildly stretched tires.

You can roll it, but the GS fenders tend to dimple much easier due to the screw holes.
