Nope, no rub. On Sportlines too. Haven't measured the strut. I'd assume no problem since they're 35mn

NOTE that Tirecrazy.com doesn't have XXR 530 chromium black in stock and estimate at least a 30 day delay (not to mention i couldnt get confirmation ifthey come with center caps or not)

sellers on ebay have in stock with center caps for $608 shipped, think ill go that route.

Yeah, seems like you'll have to pay a little more in order to get them sooner. If I knew Discount tire was going to take 6+ weeks then I would've just paid a little more.

@DCStorm & @shaynek - Do you have any more pics of your wheels\car? I am on the fence between chromium black and matte bronze. I'd like to see more matte bronze on white before making my decision. How do they look in person? Also, what size tires did you go with? What suspension are you riding on?

Sometimes these wheels look more gold, which is what I don't want. I like the look of a darker bronze, like they look in your above pic. Idk if it's a consistency\production issue with XXR (which I heard exists), or if it's just the lighting in the pictures I've seen.

Thanks!
