Yeah, that LGT looks awesome. Great color combo.

imac6471 · 10-18-2012, 06:44 AM

Im pullin the trigger on some 18x9.75 +20 530's tonight. I was wondering what size tire i should mount. Im looking for the most amount of tire I can fit on there. Im at stock height and plan to keep it like that, possible ill go just a tad lower. I know ill be rolling and maybe pulling no matter what size i get.

It's going to look terribly cholo

I feel like im kinda shootin in the dark with this. Smaller width wheel might be better? I like the look of this size wheel, but maybe there is a reason ive only seen it on lowered cars. Cant seem to find one at stock height. I am definently a noob when it comes to fitting wheels

The +20 will give you tons of poke on stock suspension. Most of the people that buy that offset are on coilovers and have camber to fit those wheels right. The +35 IMO would be better and you can easily fit a 245/40/18 tire or a 255/35/18 with little or any modification on stock suspension. The concave is the same on both offsets.

I was a little worried about that. So i guess ill have to wait until some +35 are available. Guess you could say i was jumpin the gun a little bit just cause im finally able to buy a set of wheels. Are these +35? That's a perfect fit IMO

Yes those are +35. I do have some camber front and rear but not much. Just imagine 15mm past what I have and that would be the +20 lol.

245/45-18 tires 18.8.75+35wheels and 3mm spacers all around, rolled fenders on stock suspension. Before STI fender flares were put on IF that helps any...

Wow good point, cholo all the way haha but it might be different seeing i have a 2011, as far as the width of the fenders on the car.

02wrxej208 · 10-18-2012, 04:49 PM

I am flipping dying to buy some 521's 18x10, so I can get the 3 inch lip, I am just worried they would be way to wide without flairs on stock fenders even with a crazy roll and pull

Do you clear your brembos without spacers? I'm looking at 18x8.75 527's but don't know much about xxr's (yet)

Check this out, it talks about the 11' WRX wheel fitment and gives a couple of examples of wheel sizes.. That way you can kinda see what an offset in the 35-40 looks like. The 11' HB WRX rear fenders should be the same as the 11' Sedan body style.

Yes clears without spacers. I have two sets of rims the 527's and 521's and both fit perfect without spacers.

anyone got pics of the 530's in chromium black on a PSM 04-05?

jrSTi21 · 10-19-2012, 03:25 PM

I'm thinking about getting 19x10 et 42, 522 in gold for my 2011 Lighting Red Sti, what size tire could I run, (275 or 265)/30/19? I'm on stock suspension but looking for lowering springs next....any one think I will have issues with coils later on, clearing the 10" rim?
