Problem is I want 2 only run the vossen cv3. & they don't make aggressive offsets & I'm not a fan of spacers one bit.
They're coming out with the 19" version & had hoped to run 19x10.5 all around. But if they stay with the current 20x10.5 offset which I believe is +45 I guess I'd hit the inner arms on the front as you guys say.

Is there another solution other then running spacers in the front? And besides asking vossen to make a custom offset of +12 for the front wheels?
I have no problem pulling fenders till I can't pull no more. But all the pulling in the world won't help me not hit the inner arm as you guys say it will in the current 10.5 wide +45 config.

The 9.5" wide wheel they offer doesn't have near the concavity that the 10.5 does.

Below the pic shows the 9.5 with crap concavity. And the 10.5 with deep concavity. I want deep on all 4 corners.

Cal, they make a 10.5 +20 that fits our IS's?
If so that's good news. I could just add a small spacer even though I'm not a fan of spacers.
Do you still rub to this day with the 20x9 +20 front? I'm guessing because it's a 20" tall wheel and you haven't removed your fender liners... If you removed the fender liners you think you'd clear?

Is this good enough guys? This is how I daily mine every day.. Occasional rubbing in the rear. Had my front and rears rolled, to where it is completely flat. The rear tires will be changed to a smaller profile size tire. Current set up,

19x9.5 +22 245/35/19 Fronts, 19x10.5 +22 255/40/19 Rears.

The fronts are raised due to the crappy roads in LA..

Hope you guys like it..

I'm a big fan of the meaty tire look. I prefer sidewall.

Thanks sick! Of course rubbing did occur when I first mounted the rims without fender work. I had about an inch gap of clearance between the fender and tire. As my suspension compressed while driving, it would rub a lot but that was nowhere close to the amount of rubbing I had on my rears. I had my fenders rolled at my friend's shop. The rears are completely flat from rolling and heat gun treating the whole rear. As for the fronts, it was a bit more tricky. What we did was take off the clips that held my fender liner in place, we placed the fender liner further up, and had the liner clamped on by the inner fender when we rolled it. I did not want to cut the fender liner because it would be the same as no fender liner at all. As of right now, I only get occasional rubbing from going too quick on certain uneven pavements and bumps. The rear rubs occasionally more than the fronts so I might go with 255/35 instead because I still want to have the semi stretched. Do not want to go too crazy, had some bad incidents with my Z..

I might have to camber the fronts and rears a bit because it seems too positive..

I have no problem pulling fenders till I can't pull no more. But all the pulling in the world won't help me not hit the inner arm as you guys say it will in the current 10.5 wide +45 config.

The 9.5" wide wheel they offer doesn't have near the concavity that the 10.5 does.

Below the pic shows the 9.5 with crap concavity. And the 10.5 with deep concavity. I want deep on all 4 corners.

20x10.5 all around on the 2IS is going to be SIIIIICCCCCKKK and a first. Thanks for e-mailing us, we'll figure it out.
