ah ok I get the wheel spacer thing now, it was to avoid the wheel rubbing the strut. So then you did end up using a spacer up front? what size? Is that also only on the front because of the turning radius? Im just kinda surprised that the rear wheels would not have the same issue... Fitment is definitely something thats different from one set of wheels to another.... wheels look good, match car color nice. I'd say get the OEM bodykit for sportier look. I keep telling everyone to get it tho. I noticed it stands out a LOT more on the lighter colors like your car, a little more subtle on the darker colors.

I used a 5mm spacer up front and camber bolts to separate the wheel further away from the strut. The distance from the strut to the wheel doesn't change when turning, it's always the same. I adjusted my camber plates on the coilovers to full negative then I negated that by installing camber bolts to bring the wheel hub further from the strut and it clears fine now. The rears clears all day no issues at all, just a lot of natural negative camber.
And thanks I appreciate that, I don't really like the stock body kit to be honest. I'll probably get a front splitter from Aero Flow. Maybe side splitters later down the road too.

^^ I really like the OEM rear spoiler.....They have done a really good job of it and just the spoiler itself make a huge difference on the car

Ehhhh not a big fan of the spoilers either. Some are able to pull it off but I don't think it's the look I want. Something I'd rock would be a custom trunk kinda like this FRS where a spoiler type shape is apart of the trunk itself, but I'm sure that'd cost a pretty penny

Thats a clean frs. Wish it had a suby logo though.

Duck bill spoiler. Thats one name for those (the one on the FRS). I love the look of those. But it has to match the car. That style is a little to aggressive IMO for the ILX. A more conservative duckbill would look great tho.

Ahh okay cool I was wondering what the name for that type of spoiler was. I think it it would look good personally, the trunk already has a curve similar to a S2000 or Genesis. I've seen many on those cars so it wouldn't be too far off
