I'm very interested in the XXR 521s. I want to run a black 20x10.5 and 20x8.5 staggered setup on my CO mustang. My question is will it be ok to run 275 on the rear or will that stretch too much? Really not a fan of stretched tires and I want to be flush all around if possible hopefully without spacers or I could have to run 10.5 fronts and I don't really want to as it will rub like ass. Advice appreciated. PICS ARE VERY APPRECIATED OF SIMILAR DESIGN WHEELS.

Here's a video with the 275 rear tires on the 20x10.5 xxr 521s and it doesn't look stretched to me but I'm not an expert,

If you want a flush setup with spacers don't run a 8.5 up front. You'd probably need close to a 0 offset to get it to sit flush.

I think the guy in the video was running a 10.5 up front. His was rubbing though and I don't really want that. I guess I'll have to settle for a flush rear and tucked front then. It will likely still look really good I think as his setup is perfect in the rear but the square setup makes the car look boxy, if you get what I'm saying...

Will I have to run a spacer up front just to clear the wheels though?

What offset are you going to run.

Thats a kinda weak fitment upfront but toss a 5 mm spacer upfront if you want to make it flusher.

Rear 275 tire at the widest.

Itll be kinda off since the rear will be dead flush and the front would be set in.

In that case, I might just think about going full square as my front isn't that low and run a 5mm spacer front to clear calipers and this will allow me to rotate as well when I need to. 5mm spacer should be enough right in the front? Also, will that make the front stick out more than the back?
