at least this way you can fit semi's with no problem, and hey.. i'll take that option over 'looking dope' etc

I got notification of a reply, the forum shows there was a reply, but in here I can't see it?
eh
to answer your questions Yes they are XXR 522's 16x8 as posted previously. I love them, I'm all about spot on fitment, these are flush and with the rolled to shit house (border line pulled) fenders really fit nice. The rubber could be a lil wider and will be when I get the next set (these were just so cheap).
I haven't turned a wheel in anger, only to check clearence so far, so can't comment in that regard.
All good to help with motivation.....I'm not struggling for any at the moment but need to get uni done with for this semester. Exams are over in 2 weeks and once I purge some uber binge drinking outta the system should be all systems go on getting work done. I want this thing boosted and making flames!

Thanks for the compliments guys, atleast it will look awesome on track while I'm going heaps slow :D

Well I finished rolling my guards and got my wheels mounted up today, very happy with the fitment and the new look.
Before:
After:
Hella Flush:
That rear left guard actually needs bit more rolling down the rear of the guard, but otherwise the fitment is spot on. I see flares and bigger tyres in the future, but for now this is sufficient.
