Run Megan front upper control arms and rear camber arms, you should be fine. My fronts and rears are more aggressive than that, although mine are 19" not 20".

Should work go with 225-30 up front. I ran a 9.5+16 on 225-35-19 with roll/pull, fender tab relocated and natural camber at 24.5 inch height.

I don't think I qualify as "aggressive" but like my fitment. Running 18x8s front and 18x9s rear. Offsets are +35 and +40 respectively. Wish the fronts were as flush as the rears, but it's pretty close.

Not sure if my setup would be considered aggressive but I know it's perfectly flush

Miro 398

18x8.5 et25 (used a 5mm to bring offest down a bit)
18x9.5 et20

225/40/18 and 245/40/18

Cut front bumper tabs, rolled rear fenders
Rubs pretty bad at full lock while doing a U turn or going up driveways.

Function form coilovers maxed out to lowest setting.
SPC front camber kit. -1.0 camber on the front and -2.5 camber on the rear

The masses said go aggressive, so aggressive I went.

Found a few other shots online at HIN last month.

LOVE your car! Looks good dropped but kinda sucks to only be running 245s on 9.5" wheels. You could be running some seriously wide meats on the back of that thing! I'm gonna move up to 265/35/18s when I need new rear tires. X2 on what your front lip is......?

I have 18x8 front and 18x9.5 rear 25mm offset on all 4. due to the big caliper on the is350 I had to run a 15mm spacer in the front and I added a 3mm spacer in the rear just to flush it a bit more. tires are 225-40-18 front and 255-40-18. from this picture it looks like I can add a wider tire in the rear or add a bigger spacer..

Im running these:
19 x 9.5 et 12 (225/35)
19 × 10.5 et 12 (235/35)

Rolled fenders all around,
Pulled out liners up front,
Maxed out rear camber arms,
Sitting on Megan EZ coilovers,
About to cut off the bumper tab and just put on quick release bumper fasteners...
