[93 240 s13]

i think i might pick a set of the 527s up for my daily!

[wannabdr1ftr]

527s dont look too bad...offset choices are too bad either

[Sergio180sx]

i think i might pick a set of the 527s up for my daily!

yup i think i am too they look pimp but that 5,5 inch lip is crazy on the 526's

[satek]

They look great and are priced pretty well.

[shiftdrift]

they look good for sure.

[jacobs13]

17x10's now and in 4 lug? Thats pretty cool, i have some 962s and my only complaint is they are heavier than shit

[Sergio180sx]

They look great and are priced pretty well.

loving the prices and offsets especially the concave

[s13dan]

They look good. We all know that they are not the best but they are good enough for me!


I'm excited about the 17x10 option with 20mm offset.

We need pics of these on an S chassis!

[Penguin]

wish there were some more angles of the 527's. would like to see how "deep" the concave is.

[kaking]

Im probally gunna pickup the 526's staggered 18's for my s14...im sure theyre heavy though

[matts13vert]

526's are dope i'd rock the 18x10.5 all around with some 20mm spacers. ;)

[icantsleeps]

im going with the 527's 18x9.75 in gold

[JAYTRON]

I'm def copping some 527s sometime soon. 4 Lug battles.

[Nick_04K]

Holy shit! :eek: 18x10.5 +20 526's =

s14 Heaven

Price though?

[Sergio180sx]

Holy shit! :eek: 18x10.5 +20 526's =

s14 Heaven

Price though?

$163.75 a wheel thats a sexy price
http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-526-Wheels-18x10-5-Chromium-Black-p/52680432n.htm

[Dustxking]

most deff getting some of those 16's for my daily civic. best looking xxr ive ever seen.

[bradg1313]

526 are dope.... gona throw them on my s14 in 2 weeks

[ZilviaKid]

lol knock off battles?

[n8RPS13]

Sweet!!! Who wants my 006's haha

[Schassis707]

527 look pretty dope... hmmm might have to consider these..

[yvang07]

lol knock off battles?

Almost, the 527s have 2 additional spokes, then again the battle are knockoffs too so in all fair-ness they're knock offs of knock offs :D

[Dub's]

I sold my mint fn01c just to get these. I already place my order on hyperblack 527's 16x8.25 and 17x9.75.

[jackb77]

I like these wheels but not the size.
527 are beautiful
To flush on s13 you need spacer
17x8.25 et25 + 25mm spacer on front
17.9.75 et25 + 5mm spacer on rear

and why not silver or white??!!!

[Penguin]

^ Agreed, not fond of the colors, but i guess the mb will suffice for now.

What tire size are you guys thinking about running on the 9.75's? 215/40's?

[keeeban]

The black chrome 527's look good. I'd take em over battles any day ha

[yingiang]

nope.

super ugly

[BustedS13]

pay to play/jdm ego license plate frame/i heart haters/etc

[psychos13]

They look dope ass fuck

I like 526's better

[dontxploitme]

I'm planning to get an is300 soon and those 527s are one of the wheels I'm considering I think they'd look good on an is :D

[TooFortyEssExx]

Wheels are soo nice. Probably gonna order a few sets when I get some more cash.

[PoorMans180SX]

I like the 527 design.

The 526 gets a nasty convex face when you get wide. Ewwwwwww:

[Ham Sandwich]

I'm copping a set. Haters gon' hate.

[turbo2nr]

lip.. yummy..

[hellion240sx]

good for in the mean time wheels :)

[Future240]

Almost, the 527s have 2 additional spokes, then again the battle are knockoffs too so in all fair-ness they're knock offs of knock offs :D

What are battles a knock off of?

[DrifTGeeK510]

they aren't a rep of the CST's. Mb bought out CST and it is the exact same wheel

[ZX88]

still look cheap. hope fully those concave wheels are designed without spoke poke like the last ones.

[WIKID S4TEEN]

and why not silver or white??!!!

at these prices, you can blast them, powder coat them and still come out a winner!!!

[Waylayer]

Don't care that people hate on this brand. These rims look soooo legit with that lip.

Time to get me some

[slider2828]

That is hard core!! I am going to have to get a daily sometime this year!! WOW

[Sergio180sx]

xxr is stepping it up now with the designs and cheapest prices on the market and little by little the sizes are getting better with lug patterns!! im getting my 527's next monday for my coupe :)

[spooled240]

i suspect everyone and their mother to have these wheels by the end of the year lol

[sLiDewAys]

Everybody and their mommas are already whoring out anything new, that's just how it goes. Also, original poster should note that he 18" won't be available in 4 lug. Confirm that with nl motoring!

Definitely going to cop a pare in place of my varrstoen's, loving these new 4 lug options btw!

[Kouki_Love]

526s look goood..

wonder how big the lip is on the 18x10.5s +20

[SaNTi]

I want to see what these look like on a S13. I'm getting new wheels soon (budget minded) Pretty set on a set of Rota Grids, but these could be in the running as well.

[Kouki_Love]

anyone got a pic of the 526s 18x10.5 + 20 on a car?? just searched and didnt find anything..

i think we need a group buy for these.

[Sergio180sx]

i just called next level motoring and they are taking pre-orders right now they release end of january

[SERUM]

I really wish they would quit that multi lug b.s.

[articdragon192]

Mmmm, TC105 reps. Lol

[SERUM]

Or super concave cr kai's. It's all in how you look at it.

[Sergio180sx]

Mmmm, TC105 reps. Lol

yup but without the $2K price tag :fruit:

Or super concave cr kai's. It's all in how you look at it.

hell na the work cr kai's are ugly ass fuck they look nothing alike

[Nick_04K]

anyone got a pic of the 526s 18x10.5 + 20 on a car?? just searched and didnt find anything..

Exactly this ^


E

[kevinvue]

both of them r sick..........

[Skyn]

[Sergio180sx]

sonic motoring quoted me $425 picked up cash for the 527's 17x9.75 so when i get back to cali im ordering them

[KaminaSan]

How much lip is on that 17x10 4 lug 526?

I have wanted something without a step lip ever since the 002s, and I think these might be just the thing.

[PoorMans180SX]

I like the 527 design.

The 526 gets a nasty convex face when you get wide. Ewwwwwww:

[Sergio180sx]

How much lip is on that 17x10 4 lug 526?

I have wanted something without a step lip ever since the 002s, and I think these might be just the thing.

im guesssing about 4.5 to 5 inch lip for that size

[KaminaSan]

Haha, yeahhhhhhhh that was hard...

Ummm... he wanted pics of the 18x10.5, not 20x11 or whatever.

[revcyanide]

hmmm interessssttinnnggg
i may be picking up some 526's

[FusionR240sx]

if that wheel is a 18x10.5 it is gross.
the face of that shit looks disgusting.

[TwItCh]

they look really good xxr have good prices and designs

i might have to pick up some 527s

[KaminaSan]

if that wheel is a 18x10.5 it is gross.

Are you guys retarded? Come on. Look at the picture, and look at the tire. those numbers mean something.

305/25/20

^ this please.

18x9.5 front

18x10.5 rear

[PoorMans180SX]

If you think the 18x10.5 face is going to be different than the 20x11 face, you're kidding yourself.

[Pandapants]

The 527 still have wack ass sizes

[drunkmunky]

i didn't read page 2 or 3 of this thread but how much do the 527 bad boy's weigh?
anyone have shots of them mounted and stanced?

[Thug Life]

How do i buy!!!!

[WISH ONE]

they aren't a rep of the CST's. Mb bought out CST and it is the exact same wheel

Theyre made in taiwan, both of them.


XXR stepped it up, i have to be honest... im impressed.

[KaminaSan]

If you think the 18x10.5 face is going to be different than the 20x11 face, you're kidding yourself.

May I ask what you find so bad about the face of the 526? I think it looks like vs-xx with a mild spoke design change.

I like it. And I'd rather pay 600 bucks for these, than 2500 because the rims say 'work'.

[supportTHEezln]

i didn't read page 2 or 3 of this thread but how much do the 527 bad boy's weigh?

Look at it, it's convex, not flat like vsxx or any other good-looking dished wheel.

Haha you referred to the word stanced as if it was a verb or action....

Im hella gonna start stancing all my cars FTW...

[nippon240]

Damn...getting rid of my 522's yesterday!!

[simmode1]

You know, I kinda like the convex effect of the wide 526's. I think it'll give the wheel a more textured/contoured look or dome-like effect when in motion. At least they aren't convexed as bad as Godspeed Omega's...
http://www.cruizinconcepts.com/images/wheels/godspeed/gscobra-00123.jpg

I want to stagger the 17x10+20's and the 18x10.5+20's with some 245's and 265's. Wouldn't it be a miracle though, if these wheels come out to be lighter than 926's? That would be nice.

[raz0rbladez909]

i didn't read page 2 or 3 of this thread but how much do the 527 bad boy's weigh?

I wouldn't be surprised if they're in the 25lb+ category like the 962's were, anything in this price range and this size isn't going to be light.

You know, I kinda like the convex effect of the wide 526's. I think it'll give the wheel a more textured/contoured look or dome-like effect when in motion. At least they aren't convexed as bad as Godspeed Omega's...

Convex never looks good on a wheel but I guess to each their own, the primary problem I would assume may be BBK clearance, I know that 20xwhatever up there is clearing but is it the same for the smaller sizes? Well if you can afford a BBK you can afford wheels to fit them i guess.

I kinda need some weight with the wheels I choose anyways with the power ill be putting down so it doesn't matter to me

You know I've never heard of anyone putting on heavier wheels to get power to the ground:keke: Apparently all those high end cars with forged lightweight wheels are doing it wrong.

[GeneStarWindGSW]

talked to NLmotoring & SonicMotoring, they are both taking preorders, won't be out till end of jan, mid feb.

[KAs14slider]

Anyone on here pre-order either the 527 or the 526 yet and are planning to have them fit nice on an s14? I want to see some pics before I buy these.

[roboticnissan]

Damn! The 526 s are dope!

[teh smithers]

To the people talking crap on Works- you do realize that the extra money you spend goes into a high quality, lightweight wheel, right?

But for budget wheels, these are pretty nice. Finally getting some decent specs in production.

[raz0rbladez909]

QFT on the Works, but I can understand the appeal in affordable wheels, especially if you run them into the ground. One thing I do like though is that it seems lke they actually listen to their customer base unlike many higher end companies that have the "Take it or leave it" attitude.

[4DOOR_LIFE]

i wish the face of the 526's were flat rather than having that positive concave design. would look way better.

the 527's look cool they just need better sizing

[all show no go]

Am I the only one that gets the feeling that sport max is "trying too hard" with the excessive concave of the 526 wheel? It has way more than the TC105-N & gives it away that they are replicas.

I felt the same with their last wheel, their Gullflame Gravity Rep.. the 522 wheel. Too much concave, it looks silly.

I'll pass on both wheels.

[Corbic]

These and Enjukus new wheels almost make me wish I saved the money and kept my 4 lugs :smash:

[PoorMans180SX]

I kinda need some weight with the wheels I choose anyways with the power ill be putting down so it doesn't matter to me

This is one of the most retarded things I have ever seen on an internet forum. :duh:

The 527 is the concave wheel. The 526 is the lipped one. IMO, it looks more like XXR realized how bad they fucked up on the ugly ass 522 and designed the 527 to make us forget it. I like both these new wheels. I don't think there's anything else in their price range that looks better. Just buy a set and beat the hell out of 'em...lol

[T.O.D.]

Not bad looking for some cheap beaters i guess.

[eazye2000]

Well said.

I could see these for a daily wheel setup. Size and fitment are decent. I'm curious as to the weights, though.

[flossyrobinson]

i wonder if 17s clear z breaks, i like cheap wheels... that way i dont get pissed when i mess em up hah

[yingiang]

i would rather buy rota wheels

[sleeper108]

i would rather buy rota wheels

this.


plus, MB battles arent hard to come by, and in better sizes I think...

[Sumslapper]

2500 for meisters or 700 for 526's. hmmm decisions.... The dual lug pattern is my only beef

[simmode1]

i would rather buy rota wheels
You don't see this on Zilvia everyday... lol

These are way cheaper than similarly sized Rotas, but I'm reasonably certain that the Rotas would be waaay lighter.

Meh... Whatever. I just nice to have more options.

[Sergio180sx]

2500 for meisters or 700 for 526's. hmmm decisions.... The dual lug pattern is my only beef
around $500 18x10.5 cash pickup from sonic motoring

[Sumslapper]

around $500 18x10.5 cash pickup from sonic motoring

Get outta town thats a fancy deal right there

[unreal-]

for the +25 wouldnt you need a 5-10mm spacer to be flush (without fender mods) ?

[Sergio180sx]

Get outta town thats a fancy deal right there

yup i called them..... you fancy huh lol

[yingiang]

2500 for meisters or 700 for 526's. hmmm decisions.... The dual lug pattern is my only beef

are you fkn serious ? you have money for NICE wheels and you rather cheap out and buy shit ugly wheels ?
these are just as bad as the wide steelies
the fact that they are affordable and have a lip doesnt negate the fact that they are uglier than the shit that comes out my ass

[SaNTi]

I'll save my judgement for when I see some properly fitted on a S-chassis.

[Sergio180sx]

:wtf:

I park my car on the street and daily it so if it got jacked or my wheels stolen and they were Meisters, I would slit my wrists. These are a cheap alternative for a decent sized wheel.

Internet high five

[Sergio180sx]

i would never spend over 1k for wheels since i daily the shit out of it so thats why xxr's are perfect

[Dee]

Oh shit, looks like I found my next set of wheels. I'd happily sell my old school Work Ryver's for a set of the 526's my only question is weight.

[CMFD13coupe]

all i have to say is you get what you pay for.

Plus, those wheels are fugly as hell...

[Sergio180sx]

i dont see how you guys thing the 527's are ugly either they look just like the weds

[C-unit]

The concave one looks nice and gd price!! but I am a brandwhore...

but seriously, you can't really beat the price for the look.

[nathanong87]

i personally dont see the point in a 9.75 in wide wheel. u all say "oh that's cool they are giving you .25 extra than the 9.5..."

i think they are making a mistake and taking .25" from a 10j ....

[sw20>>s14]

i can definitely appreciate the 527s, but would never buy them so i could care less...to each their own...at least now the sub par guys will mix it up a little more...was getting tired of seeing battles anyway...

[blatantforchange]

Look at it, it's convex, not flat like vsxx or any other good-looking dished wheel.

Not that the point I'm making matters at all for this thread, but you're right, these definitely don't look good :p

Umm you realize he was talking about mesh wheels right?

[juicyjay]

someone needs to cop some 526's and mount them up. I usually hate knock offs but if its 5 inches of lip i wanna see that

[bc.]

i saw the 527's a little while ago, I think they look pretty good

[srslideways]

i have the 526's 18x10.5's on the way

[fckillerbee]

MODEL 526
17x9 = 3"
17x10 = 4.5"
18x9 = 3"
18x10.5 = 4.5"
20x9 = 3.25"
20x11 = 5.25"


should change that title to 3-5.25 inch lip. here you go fellas. We should also have these available at some stupid low prices. available at the end of this month. ;D

[indoz33]

MMmmm wheels i can beat up and not feel bad bout it =P

[PoorMans180SX]

I think it's pretty dumb when people say XXR's are knock-offs. What are they knocking off? All of their designs are either original or extremely general. It's not like Rota taking all of Volks designs and re-creating them exactly.

Yes, the 521's look sorta like BBS's, but how many mesh wheels are out there?

And the new 527's look like TC105's or whatever they are, but there are only so many choices when making a multi-spoke concave wheel, and they don't look exact.

They're just cheap wheels people.

[FusionR240sx]

they shoulda done both 18 and 17 in 4/5x114.3

[Sergio180sx]

i have some evo 9 calipers will they clear the 18x9.75+25 offset guys?

[PoorMans180SX]

i have some evo 9 calipers will they clear the 18x9.75+25 offset guys?

You should buy some and figure it out. Seriously they're $500. If they don't, buy some spacers.

[Taniguchi_Is_#1]

damn, i'd rock these. i have to give it to xxr for paying attention to the market and making good fitting, original wheels every year (rota is cookie cutter direct replica. someone had to actually design these). props.


oh yeah, girls don't care that you paid $3K fo yo rimzzzzz.



oh yeah, if you bought used work wheels, work wheels didn't get your money. you aren't supporting anyone except yourself and the dude you bought them from. get over it.

[unreal-]

interesting sizes...8.25 and 9.75. thats like walmart pricing lol

This just sealed the deal for my wheel choices, right up my alley in terms of price, and style.

Definitely getting the 527 in Matte black, 17x9.75 +25.

Goodbye tax return!

[drivens13]

Exactly. they will make for some decent sliding wheels if nothing else albeit heavy ass a sack of lead.

[Sergio180sx]

[Chopaholic]

Would like a set of 526 18x10.5 for my S13.

Been looking at Postage to the UK and the cheapest i have found seems to be NL Motoring? Coming in at just slightly over $1000.

Anyone know if other colours will be available in the future? Would much prefer a silver/polished combo!

Thanks!

[simmode1]

Dude, you better not pay $1000 for these wheels... lol :goyou:

[97240TB]

I have to agree with poorman... I mean God forbid any two designs look similar or even identical. These are companies who give a larger crowd the ability to buy a nice looking wheel without spending outrageous money. Sure you might need spacers and yeah they aren't a major brand name... but personally I rather get curb rash or catch a wall while my car has cheap heavy wheels on it then some over the top expensive wheel. The whole weight thing is kind of a moot point as well, I mean if weight is that big a issue for you then look elsewhere for a wheel.

Been looking at Postage to the UK and the cheapest i have found seems to be NL Motoring? Coming in at just slightly over $1000.

Anyone know if other colours will be available in the future? Would much prefer a silver/polished combo!


Thanks!

Sonic motoring will be cheaper but don't know how much cheaper

[KAs14slider]

Dude, if I was in the U.K. I would have to go with some rota's. They have some crazy awesome U.K. only sizes and offsets over there. Like the 18x12 + 0 rota GTR looks awesome.

[CrOW]

waiting for some picturesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss sssss.

its still cheaper than bRota's tho dude

[Chopaholic]

Dude, you better not pay $1000 for these wheels... lol :goyou:

That is cheap for wheels of that spec over here! It works out just over £650GBP!

Man sized Rota's over here are VERY expensive for a "cheap" wheel, for the GTR's you are talking about you could expect to pay £1400GBP which is about $2200.


its still cheaper than bRota's tho dude

It sure is mate, you going for a set? I don't mind paying that sort of cash but if i could get them shipped cheaper it would be fantastic :l101:

[SaNTi]

Cheapest I can get these shipped to Canada is around $900-$1000 as well. :(

Gosh Darn it!

[Sergio180sx]

Damn well I guess us in socal take xxr's for granite haha

[WIKID S4TEEN]

Goodbye tax return!

Damn bro, all you get is $500 for tax return?
you need a kid!
lol, j/k

[Gizmo_S13]

I'd rock both of them but like it was stated I would spacers for the 527s

[godrifttoday]

I wished I got free money too. It's unfortunate I make to much

[KAs14slider]

Damn, didn't know rota's were that expensive over there. But yeah, that really sucks to everyone outside of the U.S. to have to pay that much for shipping. And I am also waiting to see these "stanced" on an s-chassis before I buy some.

[ericcastro]

might get a pair from Sonic Motor.
I am running XXR's now and like em.
light, strong, and cheap.

Perfect for a hobby, which motorsports is to all of us here.
So get off your high horse, and get your cars on the track :)

[K_style]

527's looks good.. but wonder what price defference with MB battles ??

[rweezly_s13]

i'm definately snatching up a set of these for the cressida!!

[simmode1]

527's looks good.. but wonder what price defference with MB battles ??
527's are like $116 for the 17x9.75's. Last time I checked, 17x9.5 Battles were like $180...

[Sergio180sx]

unless you pay cash and pick up from sonic motoring the 527's are $106.25 a wheel to be exact for 19x9.75+25 haha

[unreal-]

Damn bro, all you get is $500 for tax return?
you need a kid!
lol, j/k

hahaha my tax return might be 4x that. im purchasing a few other things (coils, rear suspension stuff, tie rods, etc) and i might have enough for the wheels, and ill sit on them until i can afford suitable tires :)

[Sergio180sx]

man i might break even on my tax return :(

[s13silvia123]

damn, i'd rock these. i have to give it to xxr for paying attention to the market and making good fitting, original wheels every year (rota is cookie cutter direct replica. someone had to actually design these). props.


oh yeah, girls don't care that you paid $3K fo yo rimzzzzz.



oh yeah, if you bought used work wheels, work wheels didn't get your money. you aren't supporting anyone except yourself and the dude you bought them from. get over it.

wow this is the first time you said a thing for a long ass time on zilvia

[TougeKid1]

yeah the 526's 18x10.5 all around would look sick on my sil80 :naughtyd: and I'm thinking of getting the 526's staggerd 20x9 & 20x11 or save up for AME shallens CX for my 94 Q45 VIP:cool: what do u guys think?

i would rather buy rota wheels

around $500 18x10.5 cash pickup from sonic motoring

are you fkn serious ? you have money for NICE wheels and you rather cheap out and buy shit ugly wheels ?

I park my car on the street and daily it so if it got jacked or my wheels stolen and they were Meisters, I would slit my wrists. These are a cheap alternative for a decent sized wheel.

i never thought i would hear people praise rota over other companies

it seems the wheel industry is a lot like selling drugs. you start off selling ludes and weed with hopes to one day work yourself up to boss-status selling cocaine and heroin

imagine building a (race)car with these cheapass parts.. you're constantly having to patch fix your ride, bent wheel, blown suspension, leaking exhaust or cracked manifold... endless cheap shit to work on

if the bride in kill bill bought a knockoff sword instead of the hattori hanzo sword, she'd get fuckin owned by the crazy88..




cheap bastards

Mmmmkkkk baller....... why the fuck would i buy 3k wheels when i can get these for $425 and i daily the shit out of my car nobody is talking about putting these wheels on there race cars:wtf:

[PoorMans180SX]

bent wheel,

Rota's don't bend, they explode, haha. I always enjoy your posts Mike.

Mmmmkkkk baller....... why the fuck would i buy 3k wheels when i can get these for $425 and i daily the shit out of my car nobody is talking about putting these wheels on there race cars:wtf:

Oh right. But aren't you the guy that needs heavy wheels because you're making so much power? Sounds like you need 17x9 steelies bro.

[Sumslapper]

Some of you take wheels way to personal. The only thing I dont like about knockoff wheels is if someone sees you rolling on them, they assume all your parts are knockoffs. Yea its whack they steal the idea of other wheel companies but even the big wigs knock each others wheel style.

[Corbic]

When someone sees your rolling on whatever... they have no idea what the fuck the wheels are unless there is a sticker on them.

When you then say you dropped 2k on your Volk wheels they go "why the fuck would you waste 2k on Volkswagen wheels?!"

If weight is no concern, and you like the style of these wheels, then get them. Expensive wheels will dent, ding and crack just like the rest... street driving can be hell.

[KAs14slider]

I don't see all the obsession about "light" and "legit" wheels. I would only buy nice expensive wheels for looks. They offer awesome sizes and offsets that cheaper wheels don't. But now that wheel companies like xxr are starting to listen to what people want and are making better sizes and offsets, why hate on them? I don't care too much about drag racing, and I don't road race my s14. I drift it. My car will break loose just fine with heavy "knockoff" wheels, or legit light wheels so what's the difference? And if I wreck I would rather bend or scratch a cheap wheel. I can understand if the xxr's weighed like 50lbs vs 20 something of other light awesome wheels but I'm pretty sure they only weigh a little more. And in the grand scheme of things you won't notice that difference until you start trying to shave every pound off your car or start trying to shave seconds off of times at the track. And I don't think "cheap" wheels including rota's just explode or bend for no reason. If you hit something, there is a chance you break something. This is true for everything on your car regardless of price.

[Touge Noob S13]

Mmmmkkkk baller....... why the fuck would i buy 3k wheels when i can get these for $425 and i daily the shit out of my car nobody is talking about putting these wheels on there race cars:wtf:

That must be some extreme daily driving you do. Got dat weight cause mah car makes to much power yo.

[KAs14slider]

That must be some extreme daily driving you do. Got dat weight cause mah car makes to much power yo.

Yeah dude, got all dat weight man. Really sucks how these new xxr wheels weigh 100 pounds each. Sucks. Probably shouldn't buy these.

[PoorMans180SX]

Nah, not really.

You make a great point here....wait....what was it again?

Pretty neat until you finish mounting them on your car, & you drive around town on your fresh new wheels and see 4 Evos, 2 Subarus, & 17 fellow 240SX's with the same wheels.

REAL COOL

[ROOSEY]

i feel like xxr is becoming to make a name for itself. ya there heavy and not "ligit" as some would say but each year they just keep improving. these new wheels look great and xxr has improved alot since they started as sportmax. everyone has to start somewhere. but i guess its time they should start improving more in the performance aspect and not looks.
all in all these wheels look sick but i dont think i could ever get rid of my fn01rc's for these :-/

[SuicidnS13]

The funny thing is that in reality if we had any common sense and saw how bad of an investment modding cars was we would never buy any parts, especially over priced high end parts. Now having said that I jyst ordered some xxr's to roll on till my 3rd set of work wheels delivers in another 11 weeks lol....

Sadly you don't see the point I'm trying to make. And it has nothing to do with XXR wheels. I defended them earlier in the thread. I'll probably even get a set. And you're right, I don't buy knock-offs.

I'm pretty sure it's too late for that my friend, right now all the Internet Gangsters are gathering up their keyboard bullets & gangbangin over hard drives!

Now on to something other than website thuggin:
i personally dont see the point in a 9.75 in wide wheel. u all say "oh that's cool they are giving you .25 extra than the 9.5..."

i think they are making a mistake and taking .25" from a 10j ....
Great observation Sir Naterz, hence the fact that I purchased my 526 for my kouki S14 in a 18x9.5/10.5 offset, so I'll take my extra .5 & enjoy every bit of extra shiny lip I have when I'm looking down because my spicy, feisty, Latin gf is yelling at me for working on my car too much.

ALL DONE!!!:fawkd::keke: :mrmeph:

I think they worked well for the time. I just hate the black center with chrome....toooooo played out.

and they were 26lbs in the 18x9.5....you can still spin them with a stock ka...all though I would recommend a little more power ;D

i dont think anyone has gotten them yet, as in arrived on doorstep.

[fckillerbee]

according to XXR they have not been released yet. Next Level did a pre-order. We aren't doing that cause we are going to order 100's of them. ;D

still saying sometime in Feb.

[srslideways]

yeah the black center with chrome is played out but id get the spokes powder coated gold for the s13 cause my car is white would be a good match and the KA is going turbo so i would have enough to have tons of fun :D and i would get the 526's in black for my Q45 vip project and as for the pot holes I'd just avoid em :P.

. i don't care what people say if there fake wheels or cheap its my money i can do what i want if they bend or explode hey that's my problem and XXR don't really knock off anybody there the smart ones in the wheel industry making up and designing good decent wheels for any enthusiast on a budget or that likes there designs don't take things to the heart people
and if u by wheels to try and get laid that is just sad. your throwing your money away (buy em for your self) GG

Pretty neat until you finish mounting them on your car, & you drive around town on your fresh new wheels and see 4 Evos, 2 Subarus, & 17 fellow 240SX's with the same wheels.

REAL COOL

Unlike all the TEs, VS-Whatevers, RPF1s, and BBS RSs you see all over this and every other sight right??

[fckillerbee]

exactly why I painted mine white. Don't see it everyday. And don't feel sorry about fucking up a wheel. hell..another one is like 130 on discounttires.com.


but seriously...this whole "cheap wheel shit"....is a preference. Some people would rather invest in other things than baller wheels. Not saying I shouldn't be speaking since I now drift on some pretty expensive wheels...but again...it's your money.

agreed :D high 5 fckillerbee.. i still gotta figure out how i'm gonna fit those 10.5 all round hmm.

[2slowdy]

for s13
527
17x8.25 up front and 17x9.75 rears
or
17x9.75 all around?

Would you need spacers to be flush?
recommended tire size?

Personally, I'd just get four of the 17x9.75's and four 15mm spacers. 235/40 or 245/40 tires, roll, camber, pull and call it a day.

[2slowdy]

thing is, im trying to stay away from pulling if possible.

[SaNTi]

Ayo, would the 17x10 +20 be a pain to fit on a stock bodied coupe? I know I'll have to roll the fenders, but will I have any Coilover clearing issues? (Megan Tracks)

Also, What tire sizes do you guys recommend for this setup?
225/40/17 front - 235/40/17 rear? 235/40 all around?

[travypoo]

i was thinking of doing 17x10 up front and 18x10.5 in the rear. i have 20mm front fenders and 50mm rears. thinking the rear might need a decent sized spacer :S was considering running a 235 40 for front and 245 40 for rear.

17x10 + 20 will be perfect for the rear with a slight pull and a 225/235.
It'll clear coils absolutely fine.

However, this size will not fit the front unless you want whack ass camber....Or 20mm fenders.

Wrong. He has Megans. Santi, get these and you should be fine:

Megan extended brackets FTW. I'm planning on doing the same thing.

[SaNTi]

Am I stupid, or are the 17X9 +25 only offered in 5lug... :wtf:

[SuicidnS13]

Im getting set of both for my s13, I dont care if they are ghey.
Ill draw Dicks all over them if I please, I could care less.
If i bump a curb or screw them up I wont think twice about it.
When i had my works just the thought of any sort of damage to them broke my heart. Im over being accepted by the jdm tyte gods, i just want to get to the track, worry free.

Yeah, Yeah. haha

That's why these wheels are so appealing to me though. Good sizing, 4lug, and decent price. I WANT to run 17x10 all around but it seems like that size up front could cause problems, so the next best thing would be 17x9 +25 but they're 5lug. lol

[truckmtrS13]

Found this on the interwebz

[2slowdy]

Oh my goodness. Those are sexy.

[s13dan]

That is a nioce concave IMO...

[evo2s14]

Can't decide if I wanna do a 5lug conversion anymore since these are offered in decent sizes... I would like to run 18s though :|

[khmer1]

like i said before are these out to order or is there a date for when they will be released

also what size are those in the picture

My pants are quite tight at the moment. Man those are sexy. I really want the 4th from the top, Matte Black.

XXR has made a hit with these wheels.. Them and NL motoring are going to make a lot of money in the next 2-3 months.

[simmode1]

Yeah, Yeah. haha

Dude, this is the only point of having Megan coilovers, IMO. Buy two of the 17x10+20 and the Megan 25mm extended brackets that I posted on the previous page for you and do a test fit.

If it works, great, buy two more 17x10's. If it doesn't work, buy yourself two 4 lug 17x9+20 XXR 006's for the fronts. The 006's and the 526's look similar enough to pull it off and fool the untrained eye anyway.

Oh god shut up. If you have the vision, style and balls to pull it off... then go for it.

You could craft the same look with Rotas and Varrstoens. It's all about having enough foresight to pick styles that compliment each other instead of clashing with each other. Plus, they're 240's... who gives a fuck?
