has anyone had success fitting 18x8.75 front and 18x9.75 rear?
does the 9.75 only come in +20? or is there also a +35? |

Yes, I just finished reading all 35 pages of this thread. As I continue to re-think the wheel game, I remembered this thread and started reading up on it. I'm really digging the multi-spoke look for this car...and the 527s in chromium black for the "Red & almost black look" I envision are most likely the way I'll go. I think this will be an excellent Christmas present for myself! @JoeBoxer I'll be sure to contact you when I'm ready.

Quite a few guys including myself running Muteki SR48 lug nuts.
Will require slim tuner style nuts on these wheels. Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2

XXR 527
I'm not sure if this has been covered yet but I'm thinking about getting XXR 527's in 17X9.75 because I don't really want 18's.
Does anybody know if the 17X9.75 with 235/40/17 tires will fit on the frs without rubbing and having to add camber? I want a car that can be somewhat trackable and I won't destroy my diff going over a manhole cover on the road lol. I don't have anything against slammed cars I just don't want to deal with rubbing and not being able to drive my car daily on the flooded Florida roads |

I want to stick was 17s and have 245 Star Specs from my Evo I could use. It's tempting and would be fairly inexpensive compared to other set-ups I'm looking at, but I'm still unsure about doing the 9.75s over 8.25s. |
