XXR's are fine IMO. Just don't stick Volk or other brand stickers/center caps on them. They are a heavy wheel and the finish isn't the best but I think they are a fine wheel for the price. I would suggest sticking to the 8.75" and 9" widths with around a +35 offset. Wider wheels and lower offsets just mean more trouble fitting them. I also don't like to recommend a tire narrower than 225 on a wheel that's close to or over 9" wide. A 205 tire on a 9.5" wheel is just asking for trouble.

How do you feel about rolling/shaving fenders? Any concerns about driving on stretched tires? What about tire wear from excessive camber? What's your budget and how low do you want the car to be?

My car is on D2s almost maxxxed out and it's perfect for the pen wheels on it now only a tiny bit of rubbing so I'd like to keep the height it's not to low..as for the road jeez there trashh so definitely a nice simple tuck run maybe 235 /40 MAYBE 35 ..so trying not to pull or shave fenders..definitely gonna be a well thought out plan but that's the idea also thinking of going to 17s..? What do u think ??

Winter time hoes. Steelies/Blizzaks. Got a set of OEM TPMS for $46 off ebay cause screw paying more. Since I don't have center caps, silicone paste that nut. I'm sure as hell not dealing with salt/water getting on it and rusting it up.

Haven't posted here in forever, but I finally picked up some wheels for my car! I'm too damn cheap for a good set of aftermarkets.

TL wheels? I can't place them

Close! 12-14 TSX, 17x7.5, I found them and couldn't risk losing them, so I snagged them the day they came available. Just picked up a set of H centre caps from work, now I'm waiting for the spring to order up some track tires for them.
