Is anyone running XXR 530 rims?
I'm looking at getting a set of 17x8.25 and was wondering how good they look on a forester, and if an et35 offset would work on stock suspension?
Although, once I find some local wrx or sti takeoffs I'll be doing the suspension.
Thanx for any help you guys can give me

Not sure if anyone here has them. Did you search? How they would look is opinion, you have to find someone with them or just take the plunge.

Reading just a little through this thread will show you that these will fit no problem.

Thanx sooblover. I have read through the thread a few times but I always like the reassurance from guys that know what their talking about.
I did find there is one guy on here running them. And they look ok but I'm not a big fan of silver rims on black cars. I just hope the chromium black will look good on the 04 xt red.

Bought Brembos. I may be leaving the "Aggressive wheel Foresters" unless I can find some wheels I like that clear the brakes that are still aggressive. My current setup won't clear Brembos without a huge spacer.

I think chromium black would be awesome on red! ;) do it and don't worry about reassurance, you seem to have good taste. Get a 245/45-17 tire size. Meeeaaatt.

Rota D-Force 18x9.5 +40. STi take-off 245/40-18 tires. Clears Brembos fine with no spacers. Clears fenders the same way my 17x9 +38 wheels with 245/45-17 wheels. Requires some rolling on all four corners, no pulling.

Looks great.
I like the look of those better than the old G-Forces.
