I can certainly make a sticky thread of different rim/tire size calculators if we get enough of a collection of them to warrant doing so.

 

The stock offset, for the 2010-2012 model years, is indeed 38.

 

The bolt pattern is 5x114.3

 

For the 20" upgraded wheel pkg from FMC, those are 20x8's all around.

 

As far as I am aware, I am the only one currently running a staggered set up on the AWD platform.

 

My rim sizes are:

 

Up front, 20x8.5's and the rears are 20x10. Both at a 40mm offset.

 

I would suspect you may run into issues running 20x9.5's up front.

 

Unfortunately, the person who was instrumental in assisting with my rim/tire combo has chosen to no longer participate here on EBOF.

 

Too bad really, cuz he offered a wealth of information.

i can tell you that the hub size on the sho is smaller than the mustang. I was going to run the wheels off my mustang on the sho for winter and the sho wheels did not appear to clear the hubs

 

Is the difference to much that you can't run centric hub rings to keep everything balanced correctly like wheel shops do for most aftermarket wheels.

Stock SHO wheels are 20x8 5x114.5 (5x4.5) 39 offset.

 

Various tire calculators. If these won't do it then you are...... :P

so ive been messing with the tire/wheel calculator' date=' but how do i know how to interpret the findings? what are the measurements i need to stay within?[/quote']

 

Use the rimsntires.com calculator. Try to keep the tire circumference as close as possible (rule of thumb is under 3% difference) then at the bottom there will be measurements as to how much farther it will stick out, how close it is to your brakes, etc. As long as you have the extra room mentioned, the rims should fit. And make sure you have enough room with the wheel turned all the way so they won't rub.
