I've spent the last week and a half scratching my head about wheels :grin:

I was looking at XXR 530's before I got the 3SDMs, the only thing that puts me off is they are multifit.

Do they have to be brand new wheels?

They look good, the problem with fake splits though is that unless you really look after them they can get ruined pretty quickly.

What offsets are they?

I've gone for 215/40/18 all round on mine which are 8.5j and 9.5j

The CC10s are nice, but the thing that put me off them is that they aren't directional so they look different depending on which side of the car they are on.

My new wheels on the other hand are fully directional :smug:

It all depends how low you're going to run it really. Have a look on www.tyrestretch.com  (http://www.tyrestretch.com) and www.willtheyfit.com (http://www.willtheyfit.com)

Mine is such a headache because I need to get it sitting properly when it's aired out, I'd just about got it right with the CHs. I'm starting from scrach again with these though :angry:
