Hi guys looking to get some Xxr 527 alloys for my hawkeye, now I know I want 18 inch but I want the widest deep dish I can get so have been told to get 18 with 8.75 wide and an offset of 35 now is this the widest I can get without looking ridiculous many thanks Nathan

I too have 8.75" with 35ET and 225/40/18s Is just right. BUT... it needed camber adjustment and camber bolts on all 4 corners plus the rear arches rolled to make it all work perfectly. You will also need new wheel nuts as you can't use the normal nuts. Some suppliers don't supply spiggot rings for teh wheels either so expect to pay extra for these.

Good luck! Once done they are great IMO.
I know it's off subject mate but where did you get your plate mate
I wouldn't go any wider than mentioned. for tyres check out tyre leader, for the wheels I bought them through indigo gt and wheel nuts I went to scoobyworld.

Ooooh that looks sikkkk a defo on the list was gna put a set on my bug along with coilovers etc but sold it they do look mint on a widetrack "40" defo better and beefier
Standard shocks with Tein S Tech springs, not coilovers. The springs are plenty low enough. It's whatever Tein quote for a drop. Not sure but think it was 35mm or something like that.

Soz to go off topic guys have you got a pic of them rear spats/lip that you've got on the rear bumper mate very curious to see please thx
I have the HTC Polyurethane front splitter, HTC polyurethane side skirt extensions and the HTC rear spats in fibreglass which I painted in Hellfrauds cheap satin black and are a perfect match. All parts bought at different times as I felt like it.
