not sure on rubbing issues but et25 (or there abouts) is standard, so et20 will move the wheels out 5mm

spacers should not be needed

offset of 24 or 25 is standard with 7" rims, 7.5" may need spacers. I've seen wheels that "should" fit hit the front struts so, I don't think you can ever be sure unless you physically try em.
