Default Who's rockin this style of wheel? (XXR 526, sorta a mesh design)

I'm digging these new XXRs and wanting to sell my SSI Design wheels to get a set of either the 526 or 527s. There's videos on Youtube just put up a couple days ago of an SC300 with the XXR 527s and it looks pretty good, but the lip on the 526 is effin hot. Since they're so new I doubt anyone has those exact wheels on an SC but maybe wheel designs very similar to it so I can check it out.

P.S. I'd REALLY like to have the 18x10.5" wheels for the rear but with the +20 I highly doubt they'd fit w/o some fender rolling or something They have some on a Supra on the 526's page but I don't know what size they are or if the fenders were modified at all.



That's the wheel design, and here is the link to the page with the picture of the MK4 rocking them.

I used to run 18x10.5 +20 and all i did was roll the rear fenders flat, no problem. Its definitely doable.

if wheels don't fit, MAKE them fit (within reason).

i talked to a good friend of mine that is really into tires/fitment and he thinks no way 20x11 +15 will work without some serious work/tire stretching and camber...so ill pass on it...looking at a set of 20x10s that i might pick up instead with brand new tires..
