Default 20x8.5/10 Coventry Hornet wheels on X308 XJR?

255/30/20 for the front and 305/25/20 for the rear, will it fit if I roll the fenders?

The OD of the tires are 26.1F and 26R. They also have them in chrome, but I'm leaning towards the silver.

to fit a 10" to the rear you will have to role the edge of the wings, numerous conversions seen in the UK, using XK wheel sets.

I'd worry more on how they look, and potential resale value of the car. I see a good number of cars in my area that have trouble selling because personalization. What model X308 R do you have? I've always thought the late model X308 R rims looked great.
