I never noticed this section. You can other colors other than the stock ones im liking that bronze for the 530's. I was going to go with the Chronium but i love the White on Bronze look.

No one has the 18x8.75?

Anyone know what the offset of this size might be?

I see on ebay and Amazon that they come 18x8375 +20 offset but the XXR site doesnt give this info?

Reason I ask is I'm looking into getting the 527's for my car and I don't feel like getting wider tires than the stock size which is why I'm looking in the 8.75 width. I dont want any stretch either.

why don't you want any stretch? on a 40 rated tire the stretch is not as noticeable. wider is always better. always.

I don't like the look of it and I autox my car so don't want the possibility of my tire blowing off the wheel

If I didnt buy tires already I would have gone with a 9.5 wide wheel but really I don't care that much about how wide it is. I just need a summer wheel so I dont have to swap my winters every winter :P

Honestly I think the stretch from stock tires on the XXR 9.75 is very minimal. Shouldn't have a problem with it coming off. I ran it for a few months and did a few canyon runs and it handled well in my opinion.

Here is how it looked with my stock tires. I have 265 AD08's now.

Thanks for the pic but still....



Sorry, I'm horribly picky

That and I have Hankook V12's that apparently have a narrower tread than most 245's. I wish I could really confirm that but I can't.

Agreed. I'm running 245 HTR-Z3's with my 527. Not super stretched at all

MR Bilsteins, Swift Spec R springs, XXR 18x9.75 +20 wheels, Continental DWS 265/35/18 tires





The Swift Spec R's barely lower the car. I was actually surprised how little they lowered the car. The XXR wheels stick out a little in the back, which I'm not happy about. Seems like these wheels need a slammed EVO with more negative rear camber to look better on. That's not my scene so I might sell these soon and get something with a little less aggressive specs.
