I plan on getting the 18x8.75 +35 in a month or so.

Post some pics when you get them.
well i put my buddies 5zigen fno1rc on my car and loved the look his are 17x10 +25 so i figured my quarter of an inch would not ook to bad. and the style with alot of spokes i am weary on the look with a 17 in? but made my choice and hope it looks good. so i ordered them march 7th or so they still have not shiped yet they said they will start shipping on all orders beginning or mid april!! and i already have my tires sitting in the garage i want ma wheels! ha, but for sure will post pics as soon as i get em

I hate the stupid 1/4" sizing; What the hell is the point?

Silliness, for a more aggressive fit, might as well adjust offset rather than add awkward sizing. Next thing you know they will be offering wheels by the 1/8th inch for "premium stance tunability." Just seems like a marketing gimmick to me to try to make their wheels stand out a bit more and/or latch onto those looking to run a slightly wider wheel than others. I don't see the point, but who knows - maybe they are onto something.

Where is said thread? I tried searching and didn't see it.



Those xxr's look nice, the only thing I don't like about them is the dual lug fitment.

Depending on the color of your car, bronze/gold looks super sick. XXR makes some pretty sexy wheels.
