For those in the 'stance' seen..

my current set up.

• STD R5 Coilovers (Front and rear Height, Damper and camber adjustable)
• XXR 521 18x8.5+35 in Flat Black
• Adrenza 215/35R18 Tyres - Stretched
• All Guards Rolled Flat
• Adjusted and wheel aligned
Lowered as much as possible without scraping, 2.5 degree’s camber all around.

Obviously it's not the most practical setup, but looks awesome in my opinion!

Yes they will clear brembos

Will look mint but will require all the guards rolled.

Depending how low you go, camber too.

Good luck

just double double check my xxr 530 had the same specs as yours and i purchased them off a guy who has an 06 sti and it needs spacers, the 527's may be slightly different but
