Question...

How would 20x8.5+38 and 20x10+42 work on an IS-F? To fit the rears I had to add a 3mm spacer for caliper Clearance. What would you recommend for tires and tire size on a setup like this?

 

Those offsets look good. You could go a bit more aggressive in the front. You should be able to do 235/30 in the front and 265 or 275/30 in the back. Which wheels did you go with?

 

Anyone know the wheel specs for the white IS_F sitting on 20" LM's?

pics suck the camera fogged up from coming outside from inside and i was in a rush ill get better ones soon but till then.

 

I haven't seen any wheel look better than stock wheels other than BBS LMs in dark grey. (no offense to anyone that has other wheels. - just my opinion).

 

i hope my set up dont rub. 8.5 in front with 38 offset looking to run a 5m spacer and rear 9.5 with 40 offset on 18in wheels. crosses fingers for no cutting....

 

Well we don't normally see eye to eye but it seems I have to agree here - stock IS-F wheels look the best on this car. Anything else just looks odd at best and ugly at times. Turns the car into another ISx50!

I'm testing a set of BBS LM's on the car because I feel that is the only aftermarket wheel that can pull it off.


On a sidenote - my guess is many of you have not lowered your car that much if you are insisting on running more aggressive offsets. I'm running OEM tires + OEM rims on BC coils. At my ride height when I hit dips on the highway, the front end rubs the inner plastic lining....

The sound is quite annoying and I'm going to have to raise it up a bit and perhaps firm up the ride. So for those who are trying to use spacers, wider tires and more aggressive rims the trade-off is you will have to raise the car or modify the fender - neither of which I am willing to do.

 

Thanks for the info!

Keep the talking to a minimum on this thread, for the sake of looking for proper offsets

 

Ok, I looking at a pair of 20" Iforged

Front is: 20x8.5 (2.5" lip) offset +35
Rear is : 20X10 (4" lip) offset + 42

Please give me your input on this setup before I buy. I am on Tein Springs. THANKS!!
