you need 73.1 OD and 56.1 ID rings. ring sizes are based off the common aftermarket wheel hub bore (73.1) and the fr-s/brz hub diameter (56.1)

ones i ordered: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HUB-CENTRIC-...e0b07b&vxp=mtr

beat me to it, plastic rings may melt on hard track usage so if you plan to really heat them up find some metal ones or just take them out on race days.

I steered away from the Chromium black, I want my wheels to pop more instead of blend in with my already black car.

I second that, I have a black brz and I've been debating on the color fir a long time, unless you want a all black bat mobile, I would go with silver or matted graphite, something along that line.

Matted graphite sounds cool ,but I can't find them. The silver is to much shiny for me lol

Buy em and powder coat them whatever color you'd like! From the price you pay for wheels it will still be probably cheaper to buy em and powder coat than most noticeable wheels out on the market. Plus the concavity for our wheels is just a +++ for the price !!!'

I'd love to know those specs.. ughhhh

Ordered my XXR 527's staggered 18x8.75 +20 and 18x9.75 +20 Matte Bronze w/ Hankook Ventus V12 evo K110's 215/40 and 245/35. With Muteki SR48 lugs.

Should be in next week . This should nearly complete my slammed/stretch+poke look I'm going for.

What coilovers did you decide on? I hope you got some rear lower control arms too. Sizes aren't my cup of tea but interested to see i do like the color choice.

I got BC BR's. Didn't get any lower control arms, what exactly do those do? If it's for performance, I'm not worried. And what about the sizes do you not like? Just curious..

i have 235 all around on my 8.75 and the walls are pretty flat, hopefully 215 isnt too much a stretch, would hate to see ur car with that rice rim poke that's just asking for danger

the rear lower control arms will allow you to dial in more negative camber to help fit the rears. based on the other guy running 9.75+20 in the rear, your 245/35 tire is going to need that camber or a fender pull to keep from rubbing. i think that guy has 225/40 all around and he was still having some rubbing with the stock rear arms.
