You should PM Roger (motown) of 2,4sho, or cheapthrills
They have the best looking 20's on a MM
I doubt those will work w/o rubbing on the front at least.
For the front, the overall outside diamter is going to be about 1 3/4" greater, in other words you'll have about 7/8" less clearance between the tire and wheel well in that direction. The outside edge of the tire will also be about 1" further out. So I suspect it may rub when the wheels are turned and the suspension compresses. Particularly the bottom rear of the wheel well and/or inner fender liner.
In the rear the OD will be about 2 1/4" greater meaning about 1" less room around the outside. The big problem is the outside edge of the tire will be about 2 1/4" further out.
Note those comparisons are against the OE 235/50 front and 245/55 rear. So it you still have those sizes you can out with your tape measure and see where things will sit. On the front be sure to check with the steering wheel turned different amounts as well as the leading and trailing edge of the wheel well.
