Question 5Zigen ZR+520 EVO X offset??

Anyone running ZR+520 on stock EVO X GSR?

If yes, please post information:

18x8.5, offset????
18x9.5, offset????

I am getting conflicting info from different vendors on the correct offset on these.

I will be running stock tires with stock suspension.

Thanks in advance.

So I guess +20 or +30 will do the job without any rubbing/fender rolling/etc...

I got 18x9.5 last week, +20, they fit no problem but rub a little on the wheel well liner on full right turn. On a side note, I am losing about 3 psi in one wheel per day and the tire and the tpms have been ruled out, so if this problem has not been fixed by the end of the day after i get the leak checked for a 3rd time, i will be contacting the vendor for a replacement. Just something to keep in mind.

I'm not unhappy with the +20 offset, but if I were to do it all over again I would opt for +30. The rubbing is not that bad, it's just the tire rubbing on the plastic in the wheel well, I am not worried about it causing any damage. Regarding the leak, it appears to have been caused by improper seating of the rubber washer/gasket used in the tpms. Now all I need is to get the car lowered.

From my end I had changed my mind on them when I found out the weight! I'm gonna most probably go with the RPF1 instead (about 10lbs lighter/wheel than the +520!).

Good luck and post some pics if you get them.
