On a silver BRZ, do you guy prefer the xxr 527 looks better in chromium black or flat black?

Also, where are you guys buying your XXR wheels from?

Chromium black.

nlmotoring seems like the consensus for XXR.

I was wondering what do you want to see camber or how the wheels poke out from the fender ? .

I'm currently running a different set of wheels due to the winter condition, but I'll try to find the pictures , I'll post them here if I found one .

I just wanted to see the 8.25 et25 from some better angles. If I can recycle these tires I will but not if it looks ridiculous without being slammed. Sportlines are looking like my drop of choice.

Got my new wheels, XXR 530 18x7.5 (x4) from nlmotoring.com on Black Friday. Initial impression of the wheels are, well packaged, visually flawless, perfect color, and appear well constructed. I'm impressed with how light-weight these wheels are (19.8lbs), as I was thinking they'd be heavier. Going to mount up some Michelin Pilot Sport A/S-3 225/40/18's on them soon. I'll post more picks once done.
