    Awww now you're talkin...toss some big boys on those, it's like night and day as far as traction and handling are concerned.

    Yeah, it seems a lot of people had similar reactions lol...I'm glad that I decided to push the envelope w/ 17x9 and 245 tires, cuz now people know that you don't have to run ridiculous looking stretched tires to fit a nice wide wheel. Honestly, I can't believe no one (or not many) has tried it before lol

    I like the 526s, but it will take a good bit of rolling/pulling the fronts and the rears will be rubbing probably, unless you take your car to 2J and have them bend the rear beam for some (much needed) extra camber. This was key to fitting such wide wheels AND tires on my car. Toyo R1R tires are the best tires I've ever used so far and I've used a bunch (Sumitomo HTRIII, Toyo proxes4, Dunlop direzza Z1 *spec, BFgoodrich kdw, goodyear eagle F1, etc) I'm glad I bought an extra set from 2J when they had em on sale

    I would love for some 2j mods but money is tight for now. How much camber do you have in the rear? I'm a huge nitto neo gen fan bc the inside tread is made harder for camber wear prevention, but I'm gonna try the toyo's when it comes time.

    I literally just ordered, actually I should say pre-ordered, a set of 530's in 17x8.25 4x114.3 chromium black lmao. That pic did it for me. I'll also have bc's by the time the wheels get here so it'll be nice.

    I feel like the 526's are too "bling bling" for sentra's...I don't think the sentra's small size and shape would look right with them...better suited for bigger cars like maxima's or g35s

    I agree with you on the bling bling. I've been looking at the 530's and the 527's for my car come late spring. Glad you decided on one of the two. They are great wheels

    Fitment wise, the 527's > any other rim in this thread.

    *edit* I meant 526's....

    Glad to hear that. I have just decided on the 527's. Like the single spoke look better. Now time to figure out the rest of my suspension and some tires.

    the 527's and 530s are available in the same sizes and offsets so as far as fitment goes....how is one better than the other?

    Yeah, it shouldn't be much though. By my calculation they should only sit out by 1.4 inches which a fender roll and maybe slight pull should make them fit. I just hope I get them by april.
