I've seen 20's on a 7thgen before, but its not common. You'll probably have to add negative camber, and roll your fenders. Just be warned that your car will accelerate slow than my grandmother on her bicycle. Also your braking distance will be increased, so you need to slow down earlier.

Have fun...
