Not another....yes another wheel fitment thread

[RideThePony14]

So I've done my hw around the forums and couldn't find the answer I was looking for. I'm thinking about running a set of XXR 521 rims, 18x10 +25 on all four corners with 275/40/18 rear tire and maybe a 265/35/18 front tire. I've seen other guys running XXRs around here but none with 18s. Do you think +25 offset will be too much poke for an 18x10 square setup or will I be fine. I'm lowered on H&R SS springs and don't plan on going lower for a while, also non-brembo car. Would it just be better to run the same size tire all around or put a smaller tire up front to avoid rubbing. I'm kind of a noob when it comes to fitment but I've used the fitment calculator and it looks like I won't have a problem, just trying to get some input.

If there is too much poke I was thinking about putting these on

Now that we've got that out of the way, you'll have an inch or more of poke in the rear. A 10" wide wheel takes an offset around 43 or 45 to fit square.

Will the front poke out more or less? I don't mind poke in the rear, I just don't want the fronts to interfere with turning.

Juco's are 10.25" and he didn't specify the offset of the wheel in that post.

That second link helped clear things up. I know poke is inevitable with this setup, I just want to know if it's not too aggressive as to where I have to run neg camber etc.

I posted those links thinking you could run with that and maybe figure the rest out lol. Why don't you pm Jucostud.

Ok so I should be expecting less poke then him.

It might be a wash since his wheels are 10.25" wide.

This offset calculator can give you an better understanding of it. http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp

I think this setup could work well. If I were on coils then I would have trouble but I should be fine with just springs.

As for the fronts. Do I have to worry about rubbing at full lock?

anyone else have input?

SharkTales had an XXR 521 square 18x10 setup on his for a while.
