Part of the XXR brotherhood now. I bought them during the xmas special for $100 each in 17x8.25 in Gold. Was going to run stock tires, but thank gawd for this thread to steer me away. Hankook had a $100 rebate on four tires, so I ordered 245/40/17 V2's at $106 each. $424 total.
Sold my 6K mile Michelin HPs for $300. With rebate after 2 months. I got Free upgrade in tires. So my investment is $424 Plus $80 swapping stock TPMS over, mount and balance Investment is $504 Aluminum axle wheel spacers $30 for two pair $534 total. Strangely same price for one tire on my 1LE, not fair. |

XXR 530 18x8.75 +33 wrapped in Hankook V12 235/40/18. Lowered on Eibach Pro-Kit springs.
The front pokes out while the back sit perfectly flush. I'm not too happy about this and I'm considering either spacers in the rear so that the back wheels match the poke in the front OR I get some coilovers and camber the fronts to tuck them in. Also, I had troubles finding this information; The center caps for the XXR 530 wheels are 68mm with a ~62mm retainer clip in the inside. Last edited by kevaughan; 05-31-2018 at 10:12 AM. |

There seems to be a missing lug nut. Was it taken off or did it break off? If it broke off, was it the break that caused the rest of the failure or did it happen after the failure? I don't see wheel spacers, but I don't see open ended lug nuts, so I'm suspicious when a lug looks like it broke off. Last edited by Irace86.2.0; 05-29-2018 at 01:14 AM. |

Shattering or bending, you're not driving home on it and you're definitely replacing it. Bending certainly is preferable, but I'm not paying $1,000 dollars so a wheel bends... $1,000 buys me two more sets of XXRs! Planning on buying some used in a couple days, I'll post pics if/when I get them. 530s 18x8.75 +33 on firestorm just as the photo above. Very excited!

So as long as the inside (retainer clip) is about 62mm it will clip on snug.
If you want to add a sticker or vinyl to these particular caps, look for 65mm size. Amazon: https://amzn.to/2LgM5BP Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
