Xxr 530
Recently got a set of xxr530 17x8.25+35 for my 2005. The rear fits great but the front do not clear the oem brembos. Just wondering if anybody has had these rims as well in the same size and what spacer to use. I was looking at trakplus hub centric spacers. Thanks in advance.

OP don't listen to these fools. I had Volks on my cars for years and honestly got sick of worrying about them ( Stolen/rashed/damaged etc...) sold the last set, bought ROTAS for the EVO, and never happier
I'd never spend that $ amount on wheels again.
I guess if you drive your car from your garage to some meat head, dick slinging parking lot gathering. It's cool
Adding to this a funny story: Guy I sold last set of Volks to called me a month later cause he curbed them and obviously didn't want to spend the 800+ a piece on a new wheel. Asked if I knew anyone that did wheel repair.
My first though after feeling bad for the guy was WHEW!! I'm damn glad that's over with

Finally found the time for this again. Turns out I need 12mm spacers. I was thinking of going with a pair from Ichiba. Here is the link http://www.ichibausa.com/ProductDeta...ode=MT%2D51112. Has anyone used these with Muteki SR48 open ended lug nuts? Curious if they will fit on these, they were pricy lug nuts. Ichiba doesn't list the length of the lug studs they proivde so if anyone has that spec, I would much appreciate to know what it is.
To the guy that told me I don't support the wheel community, would you leave your car parked outside every night with a $3,000 set of rims on if you lived in NYC? My car has already been vandalized twice in the past year and nyc roads are ruthless. Drive your car here for a little while with your fancy rims you support the wheel comunity with and let me know how they're so much better than my knockoffs when your rims are bent and cracked like your garbage perspective on life.

FWIW I was going to buy rotas but I couldn't pull the trigger. I saved up(took a while) and bought some RPF1 wheels(which are VERY CHEAP compared to many) and got original wheels that are ALOT lighter and stronger. At the end of the day, enjoy your car. Who am I to speak, though, my car is on depo taillights.

I'm running the 530s as well, but the 17x9.75 25offset. For DD wheels, I like them..nothing wrong w them..I do plan to get enkeis but my goal is getting motor to where I want first and work on suspension bits, then I'll upgrade wheels to something for track
