just ran into more problems today, tried on the 3mm and 5mm spacer today and my rears still don't clear BBK, I need at least a 10MM spacer to clear, my options are now to run the 10mm spacer with extended studs/bolt on 10MM and shave down my oem studs which puts my rear offset to +19... or run 5mm and shave down my rear brembos just a tad so that they clear. What are your guys thoughts ?

I only need 3-4mm of extra clearance with 5mm spacers on. They are not rubbing on the face of the brembos but by the two pin tabs, I looked at them and figured shaving it diagonally just a bit would clear the brakes and I won't need to run the bigger spacers and require even more work... I would get new wheels but I just bought them on Friday and really want to make them WORK ! Lol. The pic shows the shows where the rims rubs the calipers without any spacers on at all

Got a nice 6 page spread coming in next months Performance Auto & Sound Mag - they came back a 2nd time and shot for the cover. Anyhow -
AZA 3 piece 20x9 - 235/30/20 up front and 20x10 - 285/25/20 rear. They were hand measured and made for this car. It does not rub at all even with 4 grown adults in the car AND the sound system. Fenders rolled, no spacers.

no spacers, since its mid disk i was super surprised it cleared, it barely cleared the front, easily cleared the rears...im runnin -2 camber up front and -3 camber in rear.
i still need to pull my rear fenders a bit more and lower the car alot more in the front and a little bit more in the back.

Lots of bad information in this thread. Your cars and your money but, for the life of me, I do not understand why some of you work so hard to diminish the performance of one of the world's best performance sedans with wheels that do not fit and, as a consequence, tires that do not fit..... CL has become the new StanceNation....WTF?

Lol dude read the title of the thread...."aggressive fitment". This thread has nothing to do with performance. God knows how they'd do on a track or a drag strip....no doubt that their setups will diminish performance. But you can't deny that a lot of them on here look great.
Forgive me for making the assumption that IS-F owners are performance oriented. What was I thinking? I must have gotten confused by all the comparison threads involving M3s, M5s, C63s and GTRs but, then again, maybe those aren't performance cars either, at least not according to your "reasoning".
