So is this like a *hint hint* that five axis designed the F-Sport wheels?

Or am I totally off lol?

lol yeah they do look similar. But seeing them in person at the meet and comparing it to mine... oh boy, mine reminds me of butterflies while I see the title of "aggressive" on the five axis.

Makes me a bit jealous picking f-sport rather than five axis

Of course, I have to contribute. Here's my set up:
S5:F Gunmetal
Front: 19x8.5 (+33), 225/35/19
Rear: 19x9.5 (+35), 265/30/19

Looking good, Dean, as always! I have to say, the stance and drop of your car is perfect.

Oh yeah, and the wheels look good too.

^^^ Are you running spacers in the front to get +33 offsets?

No spacers. The offset was +30, but I had it milled to +33.

Does anyone think there is any chance of fitting a 20x10.5 on the rear of an ISF with the +33 offset? If not, how many mm can be "shaved" off without damage to the wheel (Assuming the fenders are rolled, where would it need to be without rubbing)?
