I'm going to add to the confusion. If they are the 7 spoke (a flat wide spoke) 20's, then there are two versions of these, pre and post 2006. You can tell the difference by the small holes/dimples set between the wheelnut holes (but I cant remenber which, pre or post have the holes, and which have the dimples)
The main difference is the early ones use smaller diameter wheelnuts, the latter ones use the same nuts as D3 and RRS. The latter one should fit, and clear the brakes, as I tried an earlier set, and these seemed OK, but i didnt want to replace all the wheelnuts. The other issue was these are usually 8" wide, so use a 255/50x20 tyre, and I couldnt find on wight rated high enough for the D3.
Hope that helps (a bit)
