I’m not lowererd and plan to keep it stock.

I just see 285s on 20s in here and then saw your setup. I’m digging your wheels, but was curious if I could run a 285 with a different offset or backspacing?

You can run a higher offset.
The issue with a higher offset (+38 or higher) on a 10" wide wheel is the inner side will likely touch the control arms/spindle).
Then 285s just makes contact with the above two or fender lip way more likely too.

Looking very sharp. Would you mind posting a photo from behind the car nice and low so we can see the nice wide tires?
