XXR 527 Bronze color paint quality
Thinking on buying the xxr 527 in bronze colorway.
Any owners here can give some feed back on the quality of the paint/wheel? |

I would keep the STI rims if I were you. WRB+Bronze doesn't look that good IMO.

That's only one of the most iconic colour combos in WRB history. Are you confusing either WRB or bronze with a different colour? |

And I thought it was gold that always goes with WRB? didn't really know bronze was also considered as an iconic combo with WRB. |

Ealier bronze models were known to chip. Supposedly they fixed the problem. They are a cheap wheel, don't expect them to be good. They are OK for that price range. I would suggest something a step up like Konig or enkei.
