Default Wheel help

Does anyone know if you can fit a 20x10 wheel under a c4 with the right offset?

With the correct offset -yes. What do you anticipate for a tire size though? That might be a much more difficult issue. An appropriate sized tire might resemble a "rubber-band".

Are you trying to do the same wheel X 4 all the way around on maybe a '91? I assumed '91 from your user ID.

A 50mm might be considered ideal, a 55mm would do well also I'd think. Tire diameter in this particular case I'd think could be critical.
