Will 18x9.5 with a +27 offset fit our F? I am seriously considering but want to know if it fits and clears our BBK. The wheels are enkei nt03+m.

 

You do know you will need some pulling and cutting for that offset to fit.
Those wheels usually are made to clear big brakes, I don't think that will be a problem.

 

^^Thanks but what do you mean pulling and cutting?

 

Depending on how low you go you'll probably just need to roll your fenders

 

Pulling refers to the fender edge being widened to accommodate the tire of the wheel. Cutting or rolling refers to clearing more space on the inside of the fender edge so that there is no rubbing of the wheel or tire against it on road imperfections. I'm a bit more conservative with the wheel approach, so initially I'm saying they'll but will require a roll and smaller tire, but it is doable. I have seen some IS F's with +20s offset in the front, and most said they needed a roll and/or spacer.

Best of luck!

 

^^Thanks bnizzle87, I am debating if I will need spacers or not.

 

I'm running a 19x9+18 up front with a stretched tire. Rolled the front, just make sure you buy a wheel that clears the calipers without a spacer.

 

^^Awesome pic flogrown! Thanks for posting up the pic and the specs with the info. Greatly appreciated!
