EDIT: In addition I can just trade these xxrs for slightly larger ones in the event I even keep the car long enough to need new tires . . .
I would have stayed with stock wheels till you afford to do it right.

It was actually a vis lip i had an ebay one at one point but could never get the edges to wrap around so i threw it in the trash. Just ordered an ams front bumper though to replace the beat up stocker. Super excited.

I have a question that I need some feedback on. I just recently bought a set of 4, XXR 526's. 18x10.5. I was really wondering if someone could help me out with what I need to do to make them fit. I know the rear isn't a problem, but the front is. I need some help with spacers, rolled fenders, tire size, ect.??? please, anyone's feedback will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Troy.

1st and 3rd pics are with gf210's, 2nd pic was still stock suspension.
Hey man. I was wondering if you could help me out. I have the same rims and your car looks sweet. If you could get back to me, that'd be awesome. Thanks, Troy.

What are you wanting, stretch or proper fitting tires, in between ?

Well the fronts will not fit under the fender well. And even if I were to get a hub spacer, then the wheel would stick out of the well like 2 inches. I'm just not really sure what to do. Found this forum and decided to ask. I've seen pictures of people fitting them on their 350z's. I was just wondering if I have to roll the fenders. I know I need coilovers still. I'm just trying to fit them on stock ride height for now.

Plenty of people run 10.5 up front. 265/35 would clear fine I believe. There are guys that manage a 285/35 on a 10.5 front on here. If it were me, I'd probably do 265/35 Front and 265/40 Rear and add a 15mm spacer in the rear.

So I wouldn't need to do anything with the front wheel wells?

No you don't need to do anything up front, if you run a 35 series tire you're golden. My fronts are 265/35/18 and never rub/hit/scrape or any of that. I wouldn't go above 35 sidewall on the front though, you may start to have issues with inner clearance with a taller sidewall.

What is the exact measurement of your rim in front?
