I agree I like the non dual drilled version that you have better, nice looking wheel!

headlikeahole 01-16-2014 07:11 PM

I have the exact same wheels in 10 holes and honestly its not something I have ever cared about. When I look at your car it doesnt look any different to me.

They look better than the dual-drilled ones. Nice find!

Thats what makes this world go round. If we all liked the same thing this place would really be boring. For me its just cleaner. The 10 holes wouldn't keep me up at night if I went with them instead. I was a little worried about them being too dark. All the pics I looked at of the chromium xxr stuff seems to be inconstant in shade and color. These however look amazing in certain types of lighting.

XXR is doing a fine job of making rims that are affordable and look really good. Other than being a tad heavier than I would have liked, they are perfect.

I agree with you on that, the color on mine look similar to yours I love them. Are you on lowering springs or stock?

Dwood11 01-16-2014 08:58 PM

Im on hotchkis springs right now. Im kinda ballin on a budget(see the stretched primacy's), but along with the sways, lca's, camber bolt's up front and a really aggressive track alignment the car is wicked fun to drive now. Did not want to go with cheap coils for now. Would rather wait and save up for the real deal.

Im starting to run out of things I want to upgrade. Im starting to worry I might not have anything to obsess over?

Nice. I debated 18's for a long while. They do look better for sure in terms of them filling up the space. However pilot sports aren't cheap in 17's and in 18' forget it. This was the last set of 17 5 holes they had, and with less than 30 sets to exist to this point I loved the exclusivity.

I want these in the 18x8.75 in chromium black. Where are you guys getting the 5 lug from?

Dwood11 01-17-2014 12:17 AM

I picked mine up from this place. They have 18's in 5 lug in stock I believe.

Same here. That place is legit, and the guy is very nice. Picked them up locally from him.

Dwood11 01-17-2014 09:20 AM

Me too. Drove down there on Wednesday. They hooked me up with hub rings and lug nuts as well. All for a really good price. I recommend them to anyone.

syrs_finest_frs 01-17-2014 11:30 PM

Hummm... Couldn't find the 527 style? Maybe I'm just incompetent enough to navigate the site lol
