The design was actually a trend back in the late 90s when everyone wanted the supertouring look. Enkei brought it back with concavity.

It's like a fake stretch look.

I like the 550 too. That lip is there to achieve the stanced look while having a safe sizes tire on it. My 526s scare tire shops because of this too. And im running a 255/265 combo on a 10.5.

Default XXR 521/531 18" fit over Brembos?

I've searched and can't seem to find a definitive answer. Has anyone tried 18" XXR 521's or 531's on a Brembo-equipped car? Did they clear? Did they require a spacer?

I've got a set of 18x10 square 521's as well as a set of 18x11 square 531's. Looking to upgrade from base to Brembos for track use. I could probably get away with using a spacer on the 10's, but there's not much room to spare with the 11's, so much of a spacer (beyond my current 3mm ones) probably won't clear on my application.

Has anyone here tried to fit them over Brembos? What did you find?

Thanks!
Brian

Gold should never be on any wheel of any vehicle.

I just want to double check before I order. 2006 350z with stock suspension and NO fender roll. I would like to run these sizes:
front- 18x8.75 +20mm 245/40/18 tire
rear- 18x9.75 +20mm 275/40/18 tire
XXR 530's. I think I should be okay but wonder what the more experienced think?

that would work with the +33mm offset. So what size tire would you run?

I'd run the same +20 in front and go with 255s. I have 10.5 +15 all around.

Exclamation Deep dish rims on 05 track edition

Hey guys, I would like to put some gloss black deep dish rims on my 05 track edition. I have spacers on already but am still worried about the offsets not matching. Any suggestions?
