I actually like them a lot. I have been on chromium black 18x8.75 +35 527 for the past year. I know a lot of forum members don't care for XXR but, it's not in my budget to spend 2k + on a set of wheels. Besides I daily my car with almost no track time so I don't need crazy light/strong wheels. Although they are on the heavy side (approx. 21 lbs a corner), I get nothing but compliments on them and the way they fit the car. I'm getting bored and those new 552s look awesome. The size, offset, and price are on point for me. I'm definitely going to have to pull the trigger on them when they are released.

I really like the 553s. The only thing that keeps me from a wheel with that much going on is cleaning them!

The 552 look a lot like the Cosmis Racing XT-206Rs that I have wanted for quite a while but they just don't offer them in an offset I like. They only come very aggressive or widebody needed agressive.

The 553 weight around 25lbs,
They have +36 offset, they will poke out if you use 245/35 tires

They are but at 132.00 a wheel it's pretty hard to pass those up.
