Would it look right if I pulled and rolled the rear and put 20mm fenders in the front?

itd be quite hard to pull the rears that far, not impossible, but youd be very lucky not to come out of it with your fenders buckled

id say just do the 30s, itll look awesome with those and a nice aero kit

This guy is running 18" the same rims and offset..He managed to pull it off in a coupe. I think it looks sexy without a kit and just low and wide.

Yeah, I was actually just going to post that picture.

If you can roll and pull your fenders that well, then you will be able to fit those wheels. A pull like he did is hard to do right, but when you get it it'll look awesome. Just take it slow and make sure you heat up the metal really good. Also use a real roller, not the baseball bat method.

And if you look closely directly above the middle of the wheel you can see where his quarter panel has indeed buckled in two spots.
