Xxr 531's
Hey guys,
I recently ordered xxr 531's for the X in 18x9.5 +20 offset. Now i also wanted to know if spacers are needed as I heard that it doesn't clear the front calipers? I had the same size in my rotas before but never had a problem. I'm suppose to receive the shipment on Thursday so I was thinking of ordering the spacers now? Just wanted a confirmation from the pro's and past owners of these wheels? If so, is a 10mm wheel spacer be okay? Maybe Ichiba v1?
Thank you
Tristan
Please help? Anyone?

As I recently posted (maybe elsewhere) in a thread about this exact wheel, offset is not the whole story; you also need to pay attention to the design of the spokes. I have no clue as to whether these particular wheels need a spacer, but will warn you that 10 mm Type-2 spacers are hard to find, while 10 mm regular spacers will need extended lugs to be safe.

You'll need to run a 8-10 mm spacer up front to clear the Brembos.
