Forged XXR's
 
So it looks like XXR will be producing a forged wheel: XXR 527F.

Interested on price and weight of these. Was looking to purchase the regular 527, but these look even better plus they're forged. It says early 2016, so I might just wait on these. :party0030:

Xxr stepping their game up. These should be a big hit.

Even if they are forged, as only 18" and only wide (9, 10) wheels were listed, that will eat weight advantages, and they will be lighter only vs their other wheels of that size. Hence certainly not for me but just for those few that focus only on putting as wide as possible no matter cons.

Well some people like to run wide tires to increase grip. I can't think of many cons to more grip.

Front 18x9 +20 and rear 18x10 +25 for me

if they make 17x8 (or 8.25 as they make their cast wheel) I'll buy a set next year. Was planning too anyway

Looks like the 18x9 is 18.8lbs. That's pretty damn awesome!
