Yes, with the emphasis on D2. The D2 was designed around large diameter wheels, and the non-dished look suits it best. The RS2 was designed around smaller diameter dished wheels.
I was fortunate enough to own a Polar Silver RS2, and I can state from experience, the RS2 is extremely sensitive to wheel offset, size and rubber. The recommended tyre make was Dunlop. I briefly had Michelin Pilots fitted all round, and the handling suffered. It just wasn't right. I switched back to Dunlop SP8000, (made specifically for the RS2 by Dunlop) and it was business as usual. The RS2 suspension is quite firm, firmer than an RS4's, so any changes made to the regular footprint are immediately apparent.
D2 with 20" wheels is very different to an RS2 with the same.
