Nice! I'm thinking these in flat black. What size did you get?

The chromium black in this batch is amazing! They look lighter in person.. and not through a crummy cell phone camera. They are really more of a gunmetal than black.

I'll try to get them mounted this weekend..

Hey guys,

What size lug nuts are needed to fit the XXR 530s? I, very frustratingly, discovered yesterday that the stock nuts don't quite work... :/

I'm thinking it's only going to be 2-3 more weeks before it's warm enough for me to mount my 527s

When you get them mounted on your car, can you please post up lots of pics? It'll help me decide between the 527 & 530.

Stock lug nuts do not work on almost all of the after market rims.

Had a few PMs about the +20 offset and how much poke comes from them, I personally love deep concave and will switch to maybe 19x8.75 +15 or 18+9.75 +20 depending on two future big buys turbo kit and rocket bunny kit..but heres the best pic I can get..

Wow thats alittle bit extreme for my taste. I was thinking 20 in the rear 35 in the front. But If your going with a RockeT Bunney then I can understand.

Yup the rear is flush with +20 and the front pokes about 8mm. Was thinking about a stangered setup but we noticed it creates too much understeer on the track with the 16mm differance. But i hope this pic helps with people before buying a set they dont really love.
