Default ---- RSR Down Springs & 19s ----

I am thinking about ordering some RSR Down Springs in the near futures. Got my eye on a set of wheels and do not know if I should go with 19 or 20s.

Wanted to see if any fellow members could post up pictures of their cars with the RSR Down Springs & 19/20s with offsets, tire size and ect. Thanks in advance.

As far as 19s go, here is an album with another IS on Vossen's and RS*R Down Springs. His CL username is Stitch626. Not sure about tire sizes but his wheel sizes are listed on the site and they most likely have the same offset as me.

I am looking at 19's as well but the vossen rep told my local shop that the 10.5 rear would require some adjustments to be made (not sure what those are off hand). Pretty bummed about that because i love the look of those wheels. I am not willing to make any adjustments outside of going with the RS-R downs to close the gap.

I too do not want to do anything extra to the body. I don't want to stretch the tire or anything. I just want to drop the car and put wheels on, nothing extra. The Vossen CV3s comes 19X10 instead of 19X10.5 in the rear, not much difference but will I have to do any modification to the body if I go with the 19X8.5 Front and 19X10 Rear with RSR DOWNS SPRINGS?

Here is my setup.







19" F Sport Forged Accessory Rims

Front: 19x8 +30 offset (45 offset - 15mm Ichiba V2 Hubcentric Spacers)
225/35/19 Michelin Pilot Super Sport



Rear: 19x9 +40 offset
255/30/19 Michelin Pilot Super Sport


Camber before dropping on RS*R Down Springs (extra info if you want). Obviously these values have changed as I am lowered now...

FL: -0.8 camber
FR: -0.8 camber

RL: -1.8 camber
RR: -1.9 camber

The rear setup right now has about 1.5 cm clearance from the fender liner/ fender. I guess it's prob at the limit if you don't want to rub. I carried 3 passengers and it did not rub in any way but if you load up the trunk, I'm sure it'd rub.
