20" System Forged SF7 test fitment (w/pics)
I got the front and rear wheels on. Unfortunately, the rears need about a 5mm spacer to clear the caliper as they barely rubbed them. Until I get the spacers I'm not running these wheels. I took some pics with my phone real quick though. Let me know what you think.
Also, do you think I'll be alright running a 5mm spacer in the rear on stock stud length? It seemed like there was plenty of thread as is. Thanks.

I have no knowledge about the spacers, but the rims look sick.

I have to run the spacers in the rear because the wheel spokes are barely rubbing the caliper. I know this because I tightened the wheels all the way to the hub at 76 ft-lbs of torque and put the car in neutral. The wheel would rotate but I could see and hear it rubbing against the calipers. I figured 2-5mm of clearance would be sufficient to give it enough space.

Yeah. By the Galleria. I've been in the STL car scene for a while. Maybe we've met. I've had a modded S2000, Evo, S60R, BMW 335xi and an AE86 corrolla...
I was living in Florida up until a year ago, was down there for 5 years so I've been out of the game for a little bit. Too bad about gateway shutting down... that's mostly why I'm parting out the 335 since I have nowhere to run the quarter and find out how fast it is.
Time to move on to the IS-F with these new wheels and the ISS forged exhaust i have being fabricated right now.
