Hey guys, I have been looking around for a new set of wheels. I found XXR 527s and have been looking into if they fit gen4s. I have heard many varied stories some saying they don't poke and some do. So will the xxr 527 fit?
Dimensions:
18x8.75 +35 offset
Thanks, Joel.

I run 18x8.5 +45 and sit exactly flush with the front guard and tuck a little bit on the rear, your xxrs will poke an extra 10mm with the offset plus an extra 1/8th of an inch. You'll struggle to fit them without coilovers and a fair bit of guard work. Hope this helps

Thanks mate, and yes I am planning on running coil-overs. Might end up going for something like yours. The 18x8.5 with +45 offset.

Go with the bigger offset otherwise you will need to run a lot of negative camber for them to be considered legal and not scrub.

Yes, they are the same specs I am running, allow maybe a mm or 2 for wheel design but you can see
here for how my wheels sit on standard height

You should be fine with those rims. Still consider 0.5 to 1 degree of neg camber to ensure scrubbing is kept to a minimum I reckon.

Yeah, I will roll the guards to avoid scrubbing. Thank you for your input guys.
Thanks, Joel.

It will, but not without heavy camber and guard rolling.
Max size?

Whats the max size I could get away with without cambering? Guard rolling doesn't bother me, but you go through tyres like no tomorrow with camber haha.

You need an offset of +40 to get away with standard type camber in that wheel size

Agreed, the ultrex rs i have sit flush/ boarder line poke, ( 18 x 8 +42) i think 18 x 8 +40 would be max, anything into the 30's would be too much
Rota G-Force

id say probably just, just if you wanted to go pretty low you would need some rolling
