Talking 20" Vertini Hennessey on S Sedan!

Took some pics of my new wheels on my S Sedan. Pics came out pretty crappy due to my lens fogging up, but here they are. Wheels are Vertini Hennessey - 20x8.5 +23F and 20x10 +35R w/ 245/35 and 275/30. Suspension is Tanabe NF210. I haven't gotten it aligned yet, so I don't know what my camber currently is, but so far it has not rubbed and I have not shaved the bumper bracket. My wife had two adults in the back yesterday and said she noticed no rubbing, which has me really surprised, but HAPPY! Enjoy!

Nice, not too flashy and just the right mature look for the car

If you could match the drop in the front with the rear your car would be money!! As it is it looks very nice, love the rear spoiler and the color. You don't rub in the rear because as your rear suspension compresses the rear wheels naturally camber in tucking the tires/wheels nicely under your fender.

Congrats on a job well done.

Well yeah, I was afraid it would rub because some guys running these same sizes say they rub with rear passengers and on dips. One guy has the exact same wheels, same width/offset, and tire size and says he rubs all the time. I've been fortunate to not have any issues like that so far.

Personally I don't think the front should be lowered any more, as I said it has a mature laid back look, function over for, not sacrificing comfort and reliability just to look a bit better, in fact the back could be a tad bit higher to look even more grown up... Just my opinion of course

Yeah, I'm not touching the suspension. It currently rides great and doesn't rub, so I'm happy with it! Besides, as low as it is, it's already a pain in the *** to jack the thing up!
