Default 20" Rims on a 3IS

Hey guys, anybody have any pics of the 3IS on 20" Rims? Should there be any rubbing if the car is stock height? How low do you think you can go without any problems with rubbing? Thanks guys!

Searching is your best friend but just in case you don't have any luck look for vossens thread which has the new 3is that is lowered on rsr and with their 20" wheels

My concern really is more the rubbing... From stock height will there be any rubbing with 20" rims?

The one thing you can never find out is offset. Because the 3IS is bigger than previous it should be able to fit 20s at stock height without rubbing. Just depends on the aggressiveness of the offset. I am for sure doing 19s though. Better compromise between looks and daily drive ability.
