10.5" wide in the front? Be prepared for some serious scrubbing...

I'm getting the 526's in 20x9.5F and 20x11.5R for my G35.

They are some nice looking rims. But why Go with a 18" , I think if your going for such a aggressive look why not go with a 19" and close the deal the right way !

Good Lord, are those even going to fit? 10.5 in the front sounds way too wide.

He might have some wheel liner rubbage when his wheel is cut all the way

Rims will look good with a nice tire shine tho! Good purchase!

My car did the same thing when I was chasing flushness which is why Im trying to run a stretched setup also thinking it wouldnt be as noticeable but I guess it is. Its about a 3mm difference max on my car.

Some tires are unstretchable due to strength of sidewall. Like runflats for example.

mmm I don't see where it is flush... it is more like poking out. what's the idea of running so wide wheels with tiny stretched tires on them anyway? good luck parking next to the curb...
