ET 45 will be quite a bit of poke in the rear, think jeep wrangler

Is that front tire size correct? I think that's going to look horribly stretched on a 9 inch wheel.

its going to look very unappealing and perform badly with 225 tires. I would say pass on those wheels and go with something closer to OEM specs for the 20".

That's what I figured. Better to run proper fitting stocks than bad fitting aftermarkets imo.

the fronts will be they will stick out 7 mm more than stock (like running a spacer)
the rears will stick out 25 mm out. thats 10 more than running 15 mm spacers...way too much.

you should be running 20x9 et 45 and 20x11 et 55 for a perfect fit with no spacers.

Agree with all of the above. BTW, it is almost certain that the wheels in your post are designed for a wide body.

I have that sizing/offset on my C4S's rears and they work fine there but would not work well on a narrow-body car just as ltdodge specifies.
