20's w/o rolling the fenders

Hey I saw this picture on 350zOnline for an advertisement for the GT-C 20's wheel package. Ok my question is, if you dont lower the car, except with the little bit the S-tune lowers, do you have to roll the fenders? This car doesnt look like its been lowered and it has 20x10.5 on the rear and 20x8.5 on the front..There still seems plenty of room between the wheel and the fender bottom? Any suggestions?

Wheel diameter ie. 19" or 20" is not a factor in tire rubbing. Wheel offset, and tire width are the important factors. The outer tire diameter for a given tire size will always be the same regardless of wheel diameter ie. 19" or 20".

Just be sure to run a outside diameter of tire that is the same as stock.

If your stock 17s or 18s don't rub with the S-tunes, then you will be 100% fine with the new 20s with the correct tires.

Do a google search for "tire size calculator" and you will find the correct sizes you need.
