I was looking at the XXR 527s also,

Should a 17x9.75 +25 fit with minor fender rolling and a little bit of camber?

I'm not too low (Swift Sport spring + kyb-agx struts = ~1.2" drop).

Im sorry but crpwrx, that looks horrible. That camber is ridiculous... You're taking it a step too far in my opinion.

225 on a 10inch wide wheel? Come on now, your tires look like circles from the rear they are stretched so much.

Dont get me wrong, Ive run agressive offset wheels with a slight stretch but I dont rely on a super stretch to make wheels that shouldnt fit my car fit...

Imhellaslow, saw your car at bam in person for the first time. That's what made me want to go so aggressive. I'm running -4 in the rear but need more to go lower.

May be a noob question but I thought all xxr wheels were a staggered set up.. What kind of spacers are people running to make these wheels work.... Cause isn't staggered bad for awd?
