Help with wheels

[04LSjustin]

I have a 04 ls v8 everything is stock at this time. I'm wanting to get aftermarket wheels. I don't really understand how to determine what the offset should be the wheels I want are 20" 8.5 and offset is 38 bolt pattern is 5x114.3, 5x108. I don't have plans on lowering my car. I have the factory wheels 215/55R17 on. Is this 20" wheel compatible without having any rubbing or having to make any altercations? Please and thank you

I bought my ls with same size wheels And Ive had no issues so far
But tires did have some slashes when I bought it
Previous owner probably went throught dips too fast
But if take it easy through dips/bumps you should be fine

Larry's the best at what he does. I use most of his products. Pretty cool guy too, he helped me out with some questions I had.

The stock tire is 235/50/17 and the stock wheel has a 60mm offset. IMHO, anything less than 40mm-45mm on that wide of a wheel will be iffy. I had an 18X8" wide, 40mm offset wheel running a 245/45/18 tire. I had issues on things like freeway dips (granted speeds were highish). See here; just input your numbers. Here for tire sizes......
