Xxr 530 18/ 8.75 .......... ET33 ??
Gonna be in the market for a set of new wheels soon and I'm wondering about the above, I no 18 x 8.75 will require a arch roll I'm just wondering about the et33 ??
also what tyres are suited I don't want lots of stretch but I guess I need it to fit in the arch so been told 225 40 18 should be just about ok ?
For some reason xxr are not making the 530 in et35 anymore from what I can see as there no where to be found...
Anyone able to comment on the et33 bit would be great

Looking at the Japshop website it does seem to show the ET is now 33 rather than 35. Japshop are the main UK importer of these wheels so I would expect their site to be correct.
ET33 will push the wheel another 2mm further out from the ET35 wheels. I should think another 2mm would be possible with arch rolling personally. Both my cars could still easily tuck the wheels under the arches with 225 tyres after arch rolling and still looking standard (not arch stretched crazy).

Would you recommend a 225 / 40 /18 ? I'm just wondering what tyres would suit it best
