They are 15x8 +20. I really don't want to have to pull and stretch.

Trust me I would love to do that. Could you imagine the people I could run down with slicks on 8" wheels!

thats a lot of offset. I dont blame you about the stretch but the pull may actually look good.

Haha, yeah. I love the XXR 527s, the 530s and the 535's so much I can't pick..
I may just end up doing the 18x9.75s in the 527s and 530s, two to a side so when I feel like one wheel I can run to the other side and be satisfied.

At least I can get rid of my $50 gym membership! Honestly though, do you think that's dumb as hell? I am really indecisive about what wheels and I'm probably just going to do two sets.. I mean, even if you hate it I'll probably do it but I'm just curious what people think. lol

18x9.75 on one side and 18x10.25 on the other if I do 527/530 and the other side with a 535. They don't make the 535 in a 18x9.75 sooo.. That'll be even more interesting if I go that route. May just do 18x975 all around. But XXR 521's also have an 18x10...


XXR 521 18x10 +25et
XXR 527 18x9.75 +20et
XXR 530 18x9.75 +20et
XXR 535 18x10.25 +20et

Could you all help me find some nice wheels for my car? I'm an LT so I have the 4x100 bolt pattern, I will be getting stance coilovers in soon and I'm an auto so I know I will have problems with axle bind. I previously had gold xxr 522 (they were staggered 17x8 +25 in the front and 17x9 +25 in the rear, I'm pretty sure thats what they were, but second guessing on offset, I loved how they fit) that I purchased from a tire shop, but somebody hit me and it broke one of the rims and they no longer produce them in the size I had, trust me I looked. I just want something with a little bit of poke in 17's and between 8 or 9 width. I was looking at these rota grids on ebay, but wanted other options.

Please and thanks for any advice/help.

Yea i know, I have looked, only one of the rims that i had broke so i have the other three, if i could just find another 17x9 +25 one I'd be happy, but its been about 10 months since my accident and i haven't found one. Thanks though! On the back of the rim I do have it says 17x9jj on one of the spokes and where it goes to the hub, it has like 5 holes with numbers imprinted in them, it has 21, 25, 10 over s (10/s), SR, and the letter F. So does that mean offset is 25 or what cuz the other spokes have stuff but its model and max load?
Sorry for so much text, just like being detailed.

25 offset on a 9" rim is quite a bit..
