11.5" rear and 10.5" front will onlyyyy fit with some poke and camber.

I personally have yet to hear anything negative regarding XXR save the availability issue of the 527 and 526 models, although I think they underestimated the popularity.
526s look nice if you're looking for a mesh type configuration.

That all depends on your drop an tire size. At et20, yes, expect it. You will have hella poke in the front...I wouldn't recommend it one bit. You could run the 9.75 in the rears, for a staggered, albeit pointless, setup.

225 tire. droppped almost 2" but i was planning on raising the car around a half inch when i got new wheels. what do you think? also staggered isnt an option because the guy selling them has 9.75 all the way around. i wonder how kinggs300's friend did his all the way around.

Welcome AZiners and a hoarde of guests that have come in to our fair forum by way of Google and an XXR-527 query. Just thought I'd put together a little gallery of AZiners rocking the cost-effective concave WIN of the XXR-527. This is a sweet, sweet wheel for the price, and I think after viewing the pictures, I think you'll agree!

You really didn't need to quote all of those pictures to ask that question.
They are Chromium Black.

Lame tire prices? They're the same as you'd find, +/- $20 for any other size wheel
Weight? These are lighter than stock.
No, the 17s would NOT look good. 8.25 et25 will have 0 concavity and be hella lame.
Stop speculating about ride characteristics and find a buddy who actually has a similar setup, you'll be pleasantly surprised.

okay i think its time we get a XXR thread going for all XXR rims. people tend to look down on certain rims because they are "knock offs" but in reality not everybody wants to or is able to spend 3k-4k on some higher end rims. i love my XXR 521 and i think for the money spent they are worth it. these last 3 pages shows that with the right setup and color combo, they can look even better then rims that are triple the price. but this is just my

Useful note: Using 'WINNING' to describe anything = LAF (first word is 'lame'; second word is 'as'; u can fill in the rest).
Aside from that...wheels are looking good fellas.
I dig the tails on the WDP TL.
