    if those wheels are all the same offset/width, then the rear are spaced. also, if you r planning to copy that look, it's going to take some work to replicate that stance... cut out/folded/rolled fender lips, camber kits and coilovers at the least.

    Thanks Guys

    can i use +20mm offset? because xxr 527 have just two offset size now! +35 and +20, i have research but some times i see +25, for rear i want use spacer.

    but for front i dont know i need to spacer for use +20mm offset or no? what you think?

    are you willing to do the supporting mods to use +20? even +35 will require rear fender rolling/folding/cutting, moreso if you plan on lowering and even more if you camber correct. if you are not going to lower your car it will look like a skateboard 4x4 w/ +20. so do u plan on running negative camber or camber correcting?

    for reference i am running 19x8.5 +48 camber corrected... 8.5 +48 has virtually the SAME wheel to fender clearance as 7.5 +35, but since i am camber corrected, i had to cut out most of my rear fender lips. here's some pics:




    +20 is 15mm more outboard than +35, 15mm is a little more than 1/2". in order to copy the look of the original pic, you will need, at the least, rolled/folded/cut rear fenders, coilovers (or air ride), most likely spacers (for the rear), camber kits and stretched tires.

    understand, i'm not trying to dissuade you, i'm just letting you know what is involved if you decide to go for this type of fitment.

    take it to a shop and let the pros do it, at least they can test fit, roll, shave, pull fenders if needed. I'd avoid spacers, just get correct fitment.
