20's on an mkv?!?
looks like a 4x4! You gotta be rubbing everywhere.
Regardless of size, you have excellent taste in wheels. ( i just would rock them in 18's).

im pretty sure a 215 would like rip in half on a 11 inch wheel. he probably will run a 235/40 or 35. or maybe a 225/40 if he has balls.

How are they staggered if they're 8.5 all around?

I want to see the 17x11" wheels, those should be the poster child for this thread

I think the lip/offset on the rears is bigger than the fronts, they're still 8.5s though
