Sale on Tirecrazy.com currently. Only $436 for a set of 4 XXR Series 527 GOLD 52778107 - 17"x8.25". I just bought them as that price is too hard to pass up. Now to order "4 pieces - Hubcentric Rings - 73.1mm OD to 56.1mm ID - Aluminum Hubrings" from Amazon so they fit perfectly.

[kiloGT86]

guys, whats the best option for lowering this car? I keep seeing all these names come up like Eibach pro kit, etc, etc.

Which option is the best/most stable? and why?

Also, can anyone help with a website to buy XXR wheels that ships to Dubai possibly?

Thank you.

Hey!
For lowering you have 3 options, from not so expensive to most expensive it goes like this (if i'm not mistaking):
- springs
- coilovers
- air-suspension (like you see with many VAG's)

Me personally i'm going to go with springs, eibach sportlines more specific (lower the car abt 3.5-4cm) whereas the eibach pro kit lowers the frs/brz/86 about 2.5-3 cm
Mostly cause i don't track the car (at least not yet) & i'm a student so budget isn't to big :p
Also if you'd want to track the car more often you might be better off with a set of coilovers (KW, BC-racing, etc) since you can tweak those perfectly to your likings for track use or just spirited driving
If you go for bags (air suspension) it's (in my opinion) more for show or if you live in a country with really really bad roads and speedbumps everywhere (but you're from Dubai, ahlawsahla so that shouldn't be a problem)

And for where you could buy XXR wheels who ship worldwide:
I'm going to get mine from www.nlmotoring.com (next level motoring) who have really good prices in my opinion! (now i just need to save up the money haha :p )

Hope this helped bro i'm sure other people on this forum can help you further for more details on suspension!

These wheels are garbage. 3 of 4 have a chip of some sort already and only 3 weeks old. If I could do my purchase over again I would've spent more on a better brand.

My wheels are chipping too. Anyone know a touch up paint that matches the matte bronze?

[STV3]

Damn, so is it only the people with bronze that are having chipping issues?

What website did you get the XXR 527 Wheels for $436?

EDIT- NVM I actually used my brain and did a few more clicks on Tirecrazy lol. I thought that the website only sold Tires, judging from its name. :l

What color? It may just be the matte bronze. I'll probably go for a powder coat for next summer. These will hopefully remain presentable for the rest of this summer season.
