slightly off topic its relates to wheel bores. looking at xxr's 527 with the 20 offset. the bore is not the same as the scion bore obviously what rings should i purchase in order for them to fit. Also i am dropped 1.5 inch in the front and 1.8 at the rear. the rim as you probably know is 18x8.75.

thanks guys

The hubcentric rings prevent wear on the wheel's bolt holes and studs. There is a reason almost all new cars run hubcentric wheels, they center the wheel properly. Buy some asap they are under 20 bucks all over ebay. You may be fine without them but piece of mind for a few bucks...
This guy has them, ships fast and is affordable.

rigs are def a plus. they make the wheels hub centric and not lug centric.

get aluminum ones

as for the wheel it should be fine in the rear and pushing it real close in the front.

I would not get +20 offset wheel because it affects the suspension geometry way too much

also u may need narrow tires as to not rub...

yeah plenty ppl have done it and noticed nothing but it is not recommended because it may actually end up handling worse/wear out the ball barrings faster

I wouldnt go with anything lower than 30 but that just me

Okay thanks for the info you guys are great. I just came from e46fanatics the BMW forum and they rip new kids apart. As much as i love my 330ci its almost 10 years old and you can now get one for like 10k so i dont understand where the sense of self importance came from... oh well thanks

What size tires are you running? Are you keeping the stocks?
