Test fitted some wheels, thoughts?

[Kuro!]

They're XXR521s that came off a friend of mines 240sx. They're 18x10 with a 25mm offset with some 245/40-18s stretched to fit.

I think the wheels with a 30mm offset in the rear with a non-stretched 45 series would make it look a lot better...

I'll take them...lol

I think they look good. Maybe a machined or lighter center cap to break up the wheel somee IMO

 

[Kuro!]

The wheels don't have any center caps on them at this point, and my rotors are rusty from sitting for a little bit.

Now what about the flat black wheels... and getting my calipers powder coated gold?

 

[mac10chap]

tires are way too skinny. look like they belong on a honda.
rims look pretty good
Gold calipers??? Umm, well, all that matters is that it looks good to you. I personally think that some red calipers would accent those rims really well. Or even a shiny silver to match the rivets.

 

[Kuro!]

Yea, the tires are stretched, because thats what drift bros like to do. Like I said... its a 245 on a 10" rim... I'd probably go with some 285/45-18s so they sidewalls wouldnt be stretched anywhere near that.

Uhhhhhhhhhh........no.

 

[Mike K]

Just do it!!

I like the wheels, they look really good. But the offset is wrong. With a wider tire, the tires will stick out of the body. Because of that, I would pass.

Do it! I am doing my calipers bronze like anotonios zo6

If you're pokin that much stretch, my rule is keep the tread inside the fender, the whole reason people stretch in the first place. If you wanna run a 285 get a wheel that will let you keep the tread inside the fender.

You could always just keep the wheels and pull the fenders a bit. Ive noticed everyone on here is very against it. But.. meh.. I do like the 521s. They are cheap and easily replaced. Knock offs are getting very well done now..

 

[Kuro!]

The wheels in the pic are a +25, id go probably with a +30 in the rear and a +35 in the front. I also wouldnt stretch my tires near that much.

 

[Kuro!]

Oh shit ladies... check this out. Not on sale yet, but I can preorder them now...

Flat black, 18x9.75 with a +30? I think these would look sick with a 285/45 sitting on them...
