I have the exact same wheels in 10 holes and honestly its not something I have ever cared about. When I look at your car it doesnt look any different to me.

They look better than the dual-drilled ones. Nice find!

Thats what makes this world go round. If we all liked the same thing this place would really be boring. For me its just cleaner. The 10 holes wouldn't keep me up at night if I went with them instead. I was a little worried about them being too dark. All the pics I looked at of the chromium xxr stuff seems to be inconstant in shade and color. These however look amazing in certain types of lighting.

XXR is doing a fine job of making rims that are affordable and look really good. Other than being a tad heavier than I would have liked, they are perfect.

I agree with you on that, the color on mine look similar to yours I love them. Are you on lowering springs or stock?

Im on hotchkis springs right now. Im kinda ballin on a budget(see the stretched primacy's), but along with the sways, lca's, camber bolt's up front and a really aggressive track alignment the car is wicked fun to drive now. Did not want to go with cheap coils for now. Would rather wait and save up for the real deal.

Im starting to run out of things I want to upgrade. Im starting to worry I might not have anything to obsess over?

Nice. I debated 18's for a long while. They do look better for sure in terms of them filling up the space. However pilot sports aren't cheap in 17's and in 18' forget it. This was the last set of 17 5 holes they had, and with less than 30 sets to exist to this point I loved the exclusivity.

Same here. That place is legit, and the guy is very nice. Picked them up locally from him.

Me too. Drove down there on Wednesday. They hooked me up with hub rings and lug nuts as well. All for a really good price. I recommend them to anyone.
