Will these wheels rub?

I just bought a set of 17 x 9" Morxchn Bullet wheels with a 20mm offset and am pairing them with a 255/40/17 tire. They are going on a 91 GT....I have a completely stock suspension, and am curious if they will rub? Does anyone have anything like this on their Fox?

They should not rub at all. See.....17X9 FR500's and Bullits, etc....they have a 24mm offset. To put it simple....the wheels you bought will sit 4mm further out from the wheel well. That gives you 4mm of clearance than any other wheel. 4mm isn't that much at all so they won't stick out from the wheel wells. (There is 25.4mm in 1 inch, so look at it that way.)
 
Blue91GT... If you are still out there, post a picture or two of the new rims and tires. Also, how do you like the Morxchn rims? $780 for four wheels and tires mounted and balanced seems to good to me, which makes me question the quality...
