Wheel Directory: XXR 530 18x8.75 +33
Wheels: XXR 530 Size: 18x8.75 Offset: 33mm Colour: Flat Black Tyres: Continental ExtremeContact DW Size: 235/40/18 Springs: Eibach Pro Kit On a scale of 1-10, my like factor is about 7. There's too much poke up front My biggest dislike is the fact that virtually every other white 86 in my area has black rims Last edited by DarrenDriven; 05-12-2014 at 12:06 AM. |

Fitment looks good, get some camber bolts to dial in a little negative up front and it will help with the poke.
I have a white car also and don't care for black wheels at all, they seem popular but i just don't get it. You can always paint or powdercoat them a different color because the wheels and fitment do look good. |

Not knocking your car OP, it looks nice, just something i've picked up on while browsing. Every new wheel that pops up is always black. |

Can you recommend a good camber bolt? Also, judging by the pic above, how much negative camber will be needed? |

camber will increase your tire wear but not as much as toe that is out of spec

Add some camber, you'll be much happier with the look. Tire wear will be marginally affected, just make SURE you get an alignment to fix the toe.

The 2nd picture posted is the front poke? Or rear poke?
If that's the front...how does the rear compare? Is there any poke back there?
