Thinking about some wheels and tires

Wheel specs Vossen CV3 matte silver: 20x9 +32. Tire specs: hankook ventusV12 245/40/20

I'd love to go wider for deeper concave but I don't want to use spacers. The +32 should get me close to flush. I don't plan on lowering so there should be no rubbing. Is anybody familiar with this setup?

well I ordered this setup. Will post pics when I get everything in.

little update



I love the +32 in the rear, but in the front it "looks" like it sticks out more. If I go with a +38 in will only move them in 1/4 of an inch. Not that much of a difference. I think I'm going to run a 5mm spacer in the rear to bring them out so it will match the front.

setup is 20x9 +32, with Hankook v12 245/40

Those look really good on the OS.

Thanks guys. Offset is aggressive. Still not sure how I feel about it.

Oh my... that is a tad much. Well, that's nothing a nice set of fender flares can't fix!

There's stock set and I've been trying to find either a generic set or a set off of another vehicle (that would have similar wheel arch dimensions.)

I've done some looking and the flares may help a bit. I went ahead and ordered and set of the OEM ones. If they fit the 2014 it shouldnt be a issue with the 15. I just hope it helps with the looks. I really like the wheels, and I do not want to send them back.

In my opinion HayStack it looks freaking awesome, but I do like a little bit of Poke outised my fender flair not so much that your sling rocks at other cars but just a touch so you get the bulldog stance.

Thanks Zak I appreciate it.

Right now the front looks slightly more poked than the rear. It's really hard to tell. The vendor is sending me a 5mm spacer to bring out the rear so it looks even. I'm hoping the OEM fender flares help. I seen today where I am getting a bit more water and dirt on the fender edge, so I'm confident the flares will mitigate debris and will help with the look and still have a slight poke. I have to go to the dealer Monday so they can reprogram the TPMS. I finally got the TPMS service light.

Just a heads up -
If you are just now getting the warning after you had your new wheels installed, it's probably just a bit low on air. Check those air pressures & add air as needed. Then you MUST drive your vehicle for a quarter mile or so - for the TPMS to reset (on it's own.)

Ask me how I know this.

This is a new set of TPMS, I left the original set in the stock wheels. When I 1st installed the wheels I didn't get the warning, but after a few miles it came on. From what I've been told I have to go to the dealership so they can program the new sensors. I checked tire pressure and they where all good. Is this not the case?

Ah.. I see.
Well, then yes You will need to have the dealer sync this new set... HOWEVER, keep in mind that your original set on the stock wheels will NO Longer work. So, if/when you put your stock wheels back on, it will throw a TPMS Warning.
Just a heads up.

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like Mitsubishi has us by the nads Im running a cold pressure of 37 psi in the 245/40/20. Thats what they were inflated to when i got them.
