Hey guys, I've recently planned out what I wanted to do for my CL9. Currently it's stock as a rock base model but hopefully within the next few months I can do something about it. I plan on dropping it with either BC Sports BR Coilovers or Tein SS street basics to about 1 finger space all around.

Now to rims, since LMs are too expensive for me, I was considering on buying a set of XXR 521's 18x8.5 5x114.3 +40 Flat Black ($1200 from jdmyard at the moment) and I was wondering how the fitment would go?

edit: I also would like to know how the tire width etc would go about to being?

Thanks!

i'm currently running 18x9 +33 on 225/40 tyres all round with about a 1 finger gap and had to have my guards rolled.

there a few threads with info about this so search is your friend!
