XXR 527/530 Gallery

Thanks for the info guys! Are you guys happy with them? I've heard mixed reviews about the quality of them and what not. What do you think?

Would all of those setup's that you suggested work with a 1 - 1.5 in drop. I have eibach pro kit springs that I'm putting on as well.

The only people who seem to have anything bad to say about XXR wheels are the ones who bought some other brand and paid $500 per wheel.

Just ordered some 18x8.75 +35 flat black 527's today.
I dont care what other people think. I like the look, fit and finish.

What are these 18x10, 18x12? Fitments for our cars guaranteed look a lot diff. Probably an inch of lip will be all.

Yes i do want those tail lights.

I also think i should of went matte black on the xxr but i dont know i like the chromium. Its not really photogenic, in person the car looks aggressive.

Im planning on doing a similar set up as you i have the same color car debating between flat black and chromium. and planning on keeping it stock and only adding the pink sti springs. you guys think this will be enough drop? Also planning on putting on the oem sti body kit with lip, skirts etc

Had some color issues, see here http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32195

Also had one wheel that did badly balance due to a light "figure 8" form. Ended up getting a whole new set in flatt black.

Would I buy again? For the price you guys pay in the US, yes, anytime.
For the price we pay over here in Switzerland, nope. (we pay about 1800$ for a set of xxr, add another 600$ and you get Rays)

Still, they look awesome, fit perfectly to our cars, and when you get a good/flawless set its a very good deal

Not that true, see my post above. However, for the price you pay in the US the value you get is still awesome.

Ok, good to know. I was planning on getting the chromium black. If I notice that the color is off when I get mine, am I able to send them back?

Thats basically depending on your seller. I had to have a "bit of a discussion" in the end to get my wheels exchanged. Please mind however that was a Swiss seller and we have sometimes different "cultural understanding" about service here than in the US ;-)

[dkrou351]

Haha. Ok. I see.
