Yes it was, I was stating that my car photos ARE with those specs. The back sticks out a good amount. Just not my style unfortunately.

Yea I don't like them sticking out either. I don't think mine do. But maybe sticking out it relative.

Mine have been coated for 2 weeks Ive drove 2 road trips in those 2 weeks not a single issue with rock chips or anything. Nor our RIDICULOUS brake dust stew that goes in the wells. I recommend it, xxr's are popular I didn't want to have the exact same wheel as everyone else. There is a place by my house only charged 50 bucks a wheels!

So I've had 527s on my car for about a month now and I really like them. They are 18x9.75 +20 and I am using 245/40/18. I plan on lowering with h&r lowering springs soon. What wider tire size will I be able to run? I want a square fitment and a meaty look. Would I be able to run 275/35/18 without any problems? Or 265/35/18? I'm guessing a fender roll will be needed

I run nankang tires for DD, and currently have 265 35 18s on my 527s. They look really good, but I probably could have went 275 without rolling the rears (I did a mild roll in the rear before mounting the new shoes, but don't think it was nessesary). Different brand tires will give you different results though.

Specs : 18x9.5 +20 - 235/40/18 Falken 612. The rear brembos clear fine but you have to run a 8-10mm spacer in the front to clear. I ran 8mm spacers all around to make it squared.
