Default IS250 with Vossen VLE-1

Hello CL,

Just installed these Vossen VLE-1 on my car and it looks amazing! Car is currently on stock suspension, but I will install RS-R Half Down Springs next week. No rubbing at all in front or rear with this set up. These wheels makes the car look very agressive.

Front
20x9.0 +32
225/35R20
Michelin Pilot Super Sport

Rear
20x10.5 +45
275/30R20
Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport

I have same wheels same specs as your wheels. My rear tires are 255/30 on rsr half downs and i rub. Even with my fenders really really pulled rub. You will for sure rub with a 275 tire. I went from having rsr downs to the half downs still rub. My rear wheels are all messed up. Becareful

if your not rubbing right now I wouldn't. I have spent so much money getting to where im at and still rubbing. I started with downs rubbed. pulled fenders and still rubbed. got spc camber arms and went negative camber. wore my $400 rear tires out in 4,000 miles. I bought the RSR half downs still rubbed and im talking front and rear. I had rear fenders pulled a lot kind of messed them up and still rubs. I totally jacked up my rims. they are chipped like crazy and my left rear ne got caught in the fender and is scratched all the way around the lip. bad news!!!!
