Can someone check out the fitment of my F14's for me.

I got these a couple weeks ago and just had the chance to throw one of them on the back to check everything out before I ordered tires.

The rim looks like a tight fit on the back side enough so that I think Im going to have rubbing issues.

My only other concern is that width of the wheel. I ordered a 20x11, which is what the box says, but the face to face measurement is 12". Im not to concerend about that though, because I dont know the exact way to measure width. Just looking for someone to chime in and let me know what they think.

You measure a wheel by where the tire bead hits. You added a extra half inch on either side.

I assumed as much, thats why I wasnt concerned about it.

Any opinion on the room from the back of the rim to the car?

What brand of tire are you going to run?

With that offset you may have some rubbing issue's, maybe with E-brake cable as well as wheel well. I have 315/35 Nitto Invo's mounted on 20x10.5 with +42 offset. They sit perfect with no rubbing.

E brake cable looks like it could be a rub spot as well. I need to call one of the wheel vendors here and see what they think.

my ebrake cable rubbed... i zip tied it up away from the wheel. I have a 305 nitto nt555r and not a single rub outside of the ebrake cable. The same people i ordered my wheels from have had customers run 315's on the same wheel size/offset.... no rub issue. I think you will be fine.

Awesome. Thanks for the help! I'll throw the tires on and put them on and see what happens. Hopefully, relocating the E brake bracket will be the extent of it.

i just pulled the cable out of the seat it was in and zip tied it around the rear arm... i did 3 ties per side. you cant see it unless you really get down there and look.
