so i've been admiring a set of XXR 522's for the longest time..the only problem i see is that they only come 16" in our lug pattern and i'm afraid of the offset might be too aggressive and would look stupid on our cars..

here are the specs of the rims:
XXR 522
Wheel Size: 16x7
Bolt Pattern: 4-100/4-114.3
Offset: +25
Backspacing: 4.98
Centerbore: 73.1

here's the link:

the offset also comes in +0 but i would think that would be even more aggressive and would definitely NOT fit on our cars.
so if i were to go with these, what tires would you guys recommend? would i have to do a stretch?? right now i've been lowered on k-sports and currently ride on 18" Drag DR-9.

let me know what you guys think!!TIA!!

Dude honestly, I would think they would look pretty sick. I'm still learning about tires and rims, but with your choice, I think it would look nice. You going flush, aggressive?

well right now i have no finger gap all the way around lowered on my k-sports and riding 18" rims..i like it, but i'm getting kind of bored with the look now and always had my eye on these cuz they resemble the rota torque's in a way. so i want to see how they would look like if i had it set up the same way i'm set up now, obviously a lot lower, but tire wise would i need it to be more aggressive and am i way in over my head..

I think they'd look hot, I don't know a lot about aggressive fitment, you may want to pm flip

16x7 +25 will definitely fit without rubbing or rolled fenders.

so i remember that i asked Flip awhile back when i found these. and he recommended that if my car is a daily driver that he recommends that i don't go with these..i'm gonna be about 2" lower than i already am, and i'm pretty low sitting on 18s right now..

any other comments..if i were to go with this set up, what tires should i run?? I believe Flip was saying something "aggressive" like 195/35..any thoughts??

I think they'll look alright. But don't you think 16" wheels are a bit small for a CL? I mean, you're on 18's now so it will be a big difference.

I would say not to go smaller than 17". I think 16" will look funny.

I got the XXR 527s, but I guess I made the mistake of getting 15s. Need a roll and rasie it a bit just for clearance for under...yeah you probably don't wanna do what I did...but they looks nice.
