Vroomin350 is right, you got the wrong disk. The vendor should have known. You should return it and ask for the right specs that fit the F. Just remember that you can't do fat lips on the F.
Doing a 5mm will bring you to a +39.. you might need to stretch 265s and slam it, but it'll rub like crazy. I don't recommend it. Good luck.

Have you tried rolling/cutting fender? I would try that first. Also that rear tire looks FAT. I don't think I have ever seen a 20 with that much tire on an F. You could always try this, fwd to 14min.

Has anyone ever tried this with any luck?
I would loooove to do this, but it's an ISF... Not a Honda.
Those guys are dropping the car on the magazines, not lowering it slowly.
I need 8-10mm of pull, I wonder if this method would do it for me.
pics are with 6mm spacers (not enough)

The rims are 20x10.5, and the tires are 275/30R20. They are by no means fat.

I don't like the method they are using, you can see the waves in the video. I researched into it more and there are some much better ways to look into this. I am going to try rolling the fenders with the Eastwood tool first.

If you got it brand new, ask the shop to get you the right disk. My work S1R are 19X10.5+30 in the rear. I'm running the Cusco arms to camber the rear to have the wheels fit.
