Does the 25 offset cause rubbing on stock suspension? 17 and 18 in.
Would it be weird to run a 25 back and 35 front offset?

Learn that widths matter as much as offsets. You can run the 8.75 widths in those offsets. That's not weird. But I would just run the same wheels and get a pair of spacers for the rear, so you can rotate tires.
Seriously. Learn how offsets and widths work.

My matte bronze 527s are currently getting powder coated, in the mean time I want to get new center caps that are more low profile. The ones that came with the wheels stick out too far. Does anyone know of caps that will fit?

Look at tire specs and look at minimum recommend wheel width.

Measure the hole. Not that hard.

Looks good, I might have to pick up spacers... Im running the same setup except matte bronze and 225/40 tires. Can you link me to the spacers you bought?

here you go, theyre made by B2autodesign. They come with extended nuts so you just have to knock out the old ones and install the new ones.

I'm stuck between color. I tried looking for Satin White Pearl on the gold rims (not matte bronze), flat black or hypersilver... can anyone help me with pictures?

Got my 527's back today after getting powder coated. They were matte bronze and peeling after only a few months of ownership. The color is antique bronze sd matte finish, not an exact match but I'm very happy with it.
