+20 offset... any way to do it?

Okay, so i found some used wheels. Specs are 4x100, 16x7, +20 offset. If lowered on some Eibach Sportlines, is there any way to fit these wheels with that kind of offset... seems pretty tough? not really sure, but any help!?

Aw yeah +20 with the 7" wide would fit nicely. A little fender rolling, and camber bolts up front would make them sit nicely.

I do not suggest cutting the bumper brackets, as it makes the rear bumper kinda loose even being ziptied down.

You are going to rub so if you're fine with that. DO IT!!!

it depends on how much you cut off the bracket ... i went a little happy on one and it has a small gap but the other sits perfect..
