Will these new xxr 527 18x8 with +42 offset fit an evo 8 with no modifications?

Yes. I searched but everyone seems to run the 8.75in wide rim.
Yes. I know there are a ton of XXR threads.
Yes. I know they are cheap rims and I get what I pay for.

Thank you in advance.

Well before I answer your question, the Stock Enkei's on Evo 8's are a +38 offset.
You want to go to a +42 offset which no offense doesn't make any sense unless you don't understand how offset works.
The 18x8 rim diameter itself will fit the car but I wouldn't waste my money on the +42 offset.
Try finding rims with a +30 or +35 offset this will be a clean look with minimum fender work to make the wheels fit. Hope that helps

Thank you I totally do not understand offset.

The next size on the XXR's are a 18x8.75 with a +20 offset.
Will that require a fender roll?

Jeepyedo

YES!
That will require major fender work, not just a fender roll but a pull as well. Like I said try finding some with an offset of +30 or +35.

I have xxr 530s with that exact offset. No roll, pull. Megan track coilovers. Not super low, but lower than stock height.
