just curious..some 527s look more concave than others, does the offset affect concavity? as in does a +20 have more concavity than a +35? or is it the width?

Mostly width but offset will have some affect.

I remember reading somewhere that they are expected to be released in the 2nd quarter of 2013(apr-jun)...I have been contemplating the 531's and they have the same release time frame.

Correct on release i was told mid second quarter but figured june was a safe bet. The 531 and 535 should both be hot sellers and will look great on the twins.
