I searched google for a little bit and couldn't find any definitive pictures of a 17X9" +20 on the front of an s14 dumped on coilovers to show the clearance between the wheels/tire and the adjusting collars and spring.

17x9" +20 NO SPACERS

Yes I'm saying they fit and clear for sure, so when people search on google they have pictures

You could have just posted it up in the Wheel Fitment thread to accomplish the same thing...

Im running 17x9 +17 215/40 tire and 1.5 degrees camber. No pull just rolled fender. You can probably safely run factory camber specs on a +20 offset. Depends on the tire you run also. Go to RIMTUCK.com - Wheel Fitment Database (http://www.rimtuck.com)
And +20 has more clearance than +15 if im not mistaken. +20 is 20mm inward from directly over the hub (at 0 offset). So +15 offset is closer to directly over the hub than +20.

you are mistaken.

Im talking about clearance to the coilover guys, read the title.

Higher offset hits the coilover
lower offset hits the fender or sticks out

I posted this thread to say "Yes a 17x9" +20 fits on the front of an S14 on Stance coilovers with no spacers needed to clear the coilover

17x9.5 +15 5mm spacer for the front
rolled and pulled to tuck tire.

I had the rim rub against the coilover thats why I went with a spacer.
