will 20" x 8.5 fit in the rear? This is just for the rear end. Is it too wide to tuck under my fenders like my tires do now? Does anybody have 20's
18s for the front.

It's not the height that is the MAJOR problem, although it does pose a problem. It's the width. 8.5 is too wide even with 42-48mm offset... and that's assuming you can find 8.5 inch wide wheels with high FWD offsets... cause typically speaking, 8.5 in wide wheels are mostly RWD offsets...
