U think it will rub on stock suspensions.

You might have to roll the fenders but on stock suspension it shouldnt be too much of a problem. LCI's are tricky but you should be fine.

Or run a 275/30/20...

I think it will rub on bumps, because I'm pretty sure ET38 and 285/25/20 won't clear the fenders on a LCI.

I've got 20x10 that I've measured to ET38 myself, with 285/25/20.
And I had to do a slight roll on my e90 pre-lci, but I'm drop pretty low though.

Dam i dont understand why Forgestar would tell me that it would be a perfect fit with no rubbing or modifications needed.

10.5 +38 is quite aggressive even more a Pre-LCI E90. You'll have to do some fender work and run a more narrow tire to clear the outside. 285's are very aggressive.

Because they want to sell a wheel, and a lot of companies dont know/care that the LCI is wider and offsets are different.

that et38 is really an et30 on an LCI, so your trying to fit a 20x10.5 et30 with a 285/25/20 tire.

You will need a fender roll to fit it, and some camber in the rear depending on the amount you are lowered.

What suspension are you on?

The fit is do-able, but not an out of the box no work thing.

It might work. Everyone said my 19/9.5/ 25 were gonna rub, but they don't. Stock sport suspension, stock fender.
