XXR's undecided so pics on Bugs/Blobs please
 
Looking for pics of XXR's (527's or 522's) on Bugs or Blobs! ; )
especially along the side of the car to show how far they sit out and the concave wheels look!

cheers

Love the look of these wheels, probably just the picture angle but those tyres look a bit big for 18's

Yes et35/et20 18x8.75 have the same concave!

^^^ That’s what I would have thought too. The wheel will be identical, the offset will only change how much it sticks out from your hub to allow clearance of struts & arches etc.

how You do it without more concave than?
are two ways from et35 to et20
more concave- hub section "push" to inside
or thicker hub section but will be problem with studs than

maybe more bended rim "arms" from hub to outside rim:wonder:

et20 8.75 is the same concave like et35 but on 9.75 wide wheel as i read on us site but not sure
what colour You after?

BrownPantsRacing 11 April 2012 12:37 PM

The thickness of the stud/nut clamping flanges in the bolt holes in the wheel stays the same but the depth of the counter-bored holes may change to accommodate, therefore leaving same thread length irrespective of offset.?

The wheel profile (concave in this case) will not change at all as the manufacturer only makes 1 casting for a standard 18 inch x 8.75 wheel and then machines down the rear wheel mounting flange to suit.

Your right though, if the wheel is wider such as 18 inch x 9.75 then this will be a different casting and MAY have a different concave to stretch the wheel more.
