Looking to throw on a set of 527 17x8.25 +35 on our stock tires. Anyone got pick on how the stretch would look? Is that a safe stretch? I dont really care for a super stretched look but alittle bit is OK.

I went with Chromium Black.. Originally wanted the silver, but I found some pictures of the chromium and fell in love with it.

I don't like too dark a wheel on a dark car.. so the blue with black wheels isn't my favorite. . the chromium is nice because I think they look light in the sun, but dark on a cloudy day.. nice variety I think.

The gold is pretty pimp though.. have to admit.

@Killerbee, those look darker than that Chromium. Maybe it's the overcast sky but they look like the matte black.

It's the overcast sky, and also the angle the picture was taken. If you look directly into them they have a "silverish" glow, however from side it looks more like black. Below a picture showing it quiet well. Rear wheel has direct light hitting it, front wheel has not, and you can see rear looks "silverish" as front almost looks black

Ok your running 527 18x8.75 35mm offset with 225/40/18 all around. Looks like you still got some spacers because yours stick out a bit in the front?



Killerbee is running 527 18x8.75 35mm offset with 245/35/18 all around with no sticking out in the front...

Hmm...is it the spacers?

Naw, gold is just too much gold to me. I don't really like gold rims.

I might mix it up and go with the 535 in the Chromium Black.
