With symmetrical wheels, the rears on an FC are INSET more than the fronts, so you definitely want more width or positive offset in the back for a flush or staggered look.

So more like +25 in the front and +20 in the rear for same width wheels. If the wheels are more like 8 inches wide in the front and 9-10 inches wide in the back (staggered), +20 in the front and +25 in the back will work and look fine (front fenders might need some rolling).

I have 17 x 8 +20's on the front with 235/45 tires...they protrude about 1/2".
Fender lips are rolled and the tires rarely make contact.
+25 would be much better.

That set up works and fit very nicely in the back though.

im using FD wheels with 20mm in the front and 25mm in the back, everything sits nice and flush...
