I've been searching through the threads and I can't find the answer. I know 20" rims will fit, but what is the recommended offset?

I'll say +40 but it depends on the with of the rim too....

My fault, I forgot to put it in my first post. I'm planning to get 20 x 8.5 Zinik Z20 Violi http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdId=11688 (I have a black SE). I was thinking about 245-35-20 for tires but I don't know what brand yet...still researching.

It will fit your car just fine. As far as tires, go with Nitto NT 555. If you want quieter then go with Pirelli 245-35-20 is perfect.

+35 will sit more flush with the fender on a 8.5 wide wheel.

+35 will give you this, comapared with the original:

Inner Clearance:9 mm (0.35 inch) less (the inside of the wheel to the strut housing)

Outer Position: Extend an extra 29 mm (1.14 inch)(position of the outside edge of the wheel)

Epilson It's right it will look better
