Xxr 522s 18 x 9.5

I just ordered a set of xxr 522s 18 x 9.5 and got a few questions while I wait for them to arrive. First is will they rub without spacers? I got bc coilovers. And second is I got a set of 245/40 tires collecting dust in my garage will those fit alright? Any suggestions?

Thanks for the help!

I just checked their site....I always that XXRs came in funky dimensions (9.75), good to know they have 9.6 now. 40 series will "fit", but definatley to skinny IMO- even for my 18 x 9s. GL

I didn't order them my girlfriend did . She got them for me for Christmas and based it off of what she read online I was just making sure they'll fit because I could still cancel the order it's on backorder until February. No need to be an *** without hearing the story behind it. And it's 25 offset

No one is being a behind, you need to tell us the story in your first post so we can understand what happen. So relax and start putting more info from the first place so we can understand your story.

Ignore the neg comments. I'm on xxr 521 18x10 and have 235 40 18 and I had a lot of rubbing issues, until I relocated my bumper tab. You will def need to roll all the fenders. Also, how low are u? I'm pretty low but once u dial in the right amount of camber you should be fine. If you have any question feel free to pm me.

Says you drive an X but you posted in the VIII/IX section...anyway...if you DO drive an X then an 18x9.5 +25 on 245/40's should fit w/o rubbing. You MIGHT need a slight fender roll.
