Any way to get F-Sport Brakes to clear stock 18's?
As the title suggests, I'm looking to upgrade my IS350 brakes to F-Sports, but would still like to use my stock 18's. After searching, the closest related post I can find is in regards to stock 18's with IS-F brakes which do not clear in the front and barely in the rear:

It's probably safe to say the F-Sport brakes would end up the same as the IS-F, but are there any solutions to this? Would spacers remedy the fitment issue? If so what sizes would I need to get 15mm, 20mm, 25mm etc...?
Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

If I remember correctly, the F-Sport BBK should clear the stock 18"s. The IS-F brakes (Brembo) are different from the the F-Sport (Stoptech). If you look on the PDF installation for the F-Sport BBK you'll see it says it will clear OEM 18"s rims.
Worse comes to worse, you need a tiny spacer.

i went to stoptechs website and downloaded the caliper template and it doesnt seem the 6 pot will clear the front. off by a few mm. until i see someone with stock rims and bbk... i dont think it will fit.
