45mm offset with 9.5's in front will it work?

I'm looking at some 20's with a 45mm offset that are 9.5" wide. Will I run into problems turning or rubbing after a 1 to 1.5" drop? I would like to run a 255/40/20 if it will fit

It might fit.
That tire is too skinny for 9.5 though...

I have 18s but my wheels are 9.5" wide with a 45mm offset. Also, I am running 255/45 tires all around, with a 1.7" drop in the front. I don't have any problems what so ever.

I believe the widest tire you can use on the front is 10" without any issues.
