I'm on the 530's 18x8.75

I have the same size wheels as you different tire size and I notice its sluggish to start. But you have to remember you added roughly 32-34 lbs compared to stock of rotational mass which doesn't seem like a lot but it is.

Yeah I get that it's alot. I didn't know what that would equate to in driver feel, and it is definately worse.. Are you on 225's? what tires? Once you broke in the tires was it more responsive with the handling coming back a bit?

I'm half tempted to sell this setup and get the 7.5" XXR's whih are 3lb less per wheel..

Not that I notice, just a bit more road noise since I just rotated them. I just switched from stockers on blizzaks to 18x8.75 527's on MPSS. Do you have a tune?

I have OTS OFT stage 2 with OFH headers. You have on much better tires than me. I'm on 235/40R-18 SUMITOMO HTR A/S P02 which are much cheaper but are still supposed to be better than the stock but it feels more sluggish and will not grip like it used to..

I just bout the same type of wheels (kept the stock 17x7 however) online. the site I bought it from NL motoring, suggested I buy a an install kit with tuner lugs, spline tool, hub centric rings and valve stems. I will not be installing them myself, but should I still buy this? or will big o tire or my local customs shop have these?

Most tire shops carry them. Except maybe the hub centric rings. Call the place you plan on taking it and ask. If they don't buy them 👍🏻

I bought the aluminum hubcentric rings. Everything else is available at the shop.

raining all day so i didnt get it washed. shitty lighting and all that good stuff so no real good pics. supposed to be sunny for the foreseeable future so ill get jenny all nice and clean tomorrow and post some better pics. i also order the wrong size lugs so thats why they are silver.

IF ANYONE CAN TELL ME WHAT SIZE LUGS GO WITH A 17X7 XXR 530 YOU WILL BE MY NEW BEST FRIEND. OR EVEN A FORUM WHERE SOMEONE WOULD KNOW. ANYWAYS ENJOY THE LIMITED PICS
