I def like the CV1's better but probably in a matte gunmetal color. Let us know what you decide on.

CV1 look best IMO but won't fit on the S-F, CV3 look great and do fit on the IS-F so there is not much choice :P

I think Vossen has custom offsets, so they should fit.

I would go with CV1s.

They wont fit without a lot of fender work in the rear and its still going to rub. There are already threads made about those wheels. The fit fine on a regular IS, not the IS-F.

I currently have these wheels specs on my car right now:

20x9 +31 245/30/20
20x11 +50 285/25/20
Currently I rub in the front but in the rear I have plenty of space left because my fenders were shaved a little too much.

The CV1 would be :
20x9 +32 245/30/20
20x10.5 +42 285/25/20

The rear would be more aggressive by 2mm if you convert the rear offsets. How will this not work if its only 2mm more aggressive and I currently don't rub on the fender nor is it even close? Maybe that person did not have his fenders shaved enough or he thought the rubbing was from the fender lining not the actual fender?

Decided on the CV3 in matte graphite. 20 inches of course. Should be here late this week or next week. I test fitted the CV1's and they were not my style.
