Official IS-F Recommended Offsets for Aftermarket wheels!
OK so I'm a big fan of buying wheels that FIT PERFECTLY on each of my cars and do a lot of research on offsets and various widths / tire combos.
IS-F STOCK setup is:
Front: 19x8, +45 sitting on a 225/40/19 tire
Rear: 19x9, +55 sitting on a 255/35/19 tire
CENTER BORE = ???? front and rear
It "seems" most owners who do upgrade their rolling stock go to a PLUS 1 upgrade using a 20" setup. I have not seen any 19" aftermarket setups that look "right" on this car, correct me if I'm wrong.
The 20" BBS LM's thread floating around with th white IS-F looks awesome - anyone know the exact offsets of that setup?
RULES: IF any of you IS-F owners have upgraded rolling stock please list in this format....
Front: wheel size, offset, tire brand/size
Rear: wheel size, offset, tire brand/size
I think this data will help everyone Chime in fellas!

ok these are some specs from other members so far so I'll be pro-active:
1) Front 19x8.5, +30mm, 235/35/19 / Rear 19x9.5, +35mm, 265/30/19
He says the rears rub the fender and he's on stock ride height so this setup maybe a bit too aggressive for those who plan to drop their car.
2) Specs are from the WALD IS-F, they did no post the offsets so I don't know but sizing
Front: 20x9 on 245/30/20 tire, Rear: 20x10.5 on 275/30/20 tire
1) Front 19x8.5, +30mm, 235/35/19 / Rear 19x9.5, +35mm, 265/30/19

Here is my set up...
Five Axis S5:F Gunmetal with Yokohama Advan Sport Tires
- Front 19x8.5 30mm offset - 235/35
- Rear 19x9.5 35mm offset - 265/30
The rear tires rub the inner fender lip ever so slightly on heavy rear suspension compression. Like high speed dips .. etc..
On stock ride height at the moment.. But still very Fush!!!
I plan to shave my rear fenders just a bit (1-2mm) so once I drop it, there will be NO Rubbing..

Whats the best setup for:
Fronts 20x9
Rears: 20x11
if I'm going to roll my fenders to get them to fit...and no rubbing...
I want them to look flush and get the rears as wide as possible for traction....

Sure! Here is the thread. And here are some better pix that I tweaked. Enjoy!
I'd have to agree with JoeZ that these offsets seem incorrect. Your rears are pretty aggressive, and your fronts are close to stock. Is this intended?

IS it just ME or do IS-F's look better with rims that have NO LIP and more flush?
Like the trademark RUF type rims or other 1 piece rims? Any rims with lips should be a larger 20" rim to fill the fender well better.
The new e92 m3 coupe for example looks funny with anything smaller than a 20" wheel setup. For a luxury car like the IS-F any fender rubbing at any angle would be a big NO NO for me.....save that stuff for Civics, etc.

But having front 45 offset and rear 35 offset, still doesn't make sense..
Your front rims will sit inward from the fender edge (like stock) and the rears will be pushed outward almost flush to the fender edge.. (not like stock)
