Yeah, yeah, I know. I may also get springs so I'm waiting to here back on the springs & tire mounting.

If you don't like them i would definitely consider trading if you get the same sizes I have.

Hey Joe sick wheels! Did you move the OEM TPMS sensors over to the new wheels?

Yeah not a problem at all.

Do you know if the ECU realizes that you have 18" wheels and calculate trips accordingly?

It does not. That's why you should try to stay as close the OEM tire outer diameter as possible.

I do like the XXR530s, but I'd rather not have the extra 5 holes in the rim for different style lugs. Are there covers/caps for these, or are they just open? And do they come with center caps?

They dual drill them for 5x114.3 as well, it makes them a little more budget friendly so they don't have to make 2 different wheels for each bolt pattern. I don't even really notice it anymore. Mine came with the center caps you can see in the bottom pic of first post.

I take it they're all 18in? Seems like it.

And I guess that would make sense about the drilling pattern.

That Matte Bronze has to be my fave so far. But I don't know how they would look on my Whiteout.

How big a deal was it? The reason I ask is my rims already have tires mounted, so I assume I'd have to have the tires pulled off to put the TPMS on the new rims?

Yeah they will have to break the bead for sure, they may not have to dismount them completely but they will have to break it down to put the sensor in and then remount and balance. Still not a big deal for any tire/wheel people.

Just what I thought, thanks!
