Not bad, I like it. Wonder how'd they look in 19"?

*Edit - Maybe with 30 offset or was 20 needed to clear the calipers?

XXR doesn't make these in 19" and i want the +20 offset for the concave look.

HOT!!! What are your tire specs and are you running spacers. I'm wheel shopping for some similar wheels.

tires are 235/40 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus. I'm not running any spacers, i thought i was going to need them in the back but once i got the wheels aligned everything looks pretty even to me.
I purchased these from next level motoring and all of their XXR wheels are at great prices. i only paid about $750 for wheels, lugs and hub centric rings.

this is my daily driver and i do not want to deal with rubbing and scrapping. i am happy with the ride height in the front i just wish the back would have come down a little more, but i can always just throw a sand bag back there (haha)

i would like your guy's opinion on my current alignment measurements...

My Toe is in spec on the front and back but camber and caster are not...should i get kits for the front and back?

thank you

My Measurements Factory Specs
FRONT FRONT
-1.1 Camber -0.9 0.0 - -1.0
2.3 Caster 2.2 4.0 - 2.5
0.01 Toe 0.02 -0.08 - 0.08
BACK BACK
-2.1 Camber -1.7 -0.5 - -1.5
0.00 Toe -0.01 -0.08 - 0.08

I'm on the fence about these in Matte black. It looks to me like they stick out past the fenders, or are they just really flush?

From what I was told, the XXR530 is built to the same specs and fitment of the XXR527 wheels. So, for those of you who wonder what it will look like lowered check out the XXR527 threads. Based on those threads, if he lowers the stance of his car, he will need to run a 225/40/18 tire and maybe roll his front fenders.

OP, I didn't think +20 would look good with only the H&R springs, but I have to say it looks really nice the way you have it now.

One last question. Do you think the +35 offset would clear the brembos?

Looks good, Im trying to decide between these and the 527's. Can you take some more side shots? I would really appreciate it, also you think the +35 wouldn't clear brembo? With similar specs as the 527's I thought it would clear. :/

He's on h&r springs. The +20 offset won't look good at stock height, the +33 might be ok with stock height. You need the +20 to clear brembo brakes but not sure if your car is a manual

Thanks for that little piece of info!

I ordered a set of wheels, hub centric rings and some tuner lugs. I was thinking of ordering another set "just in case". How is your experience with them?

The site states that they are made out of polycarbonate plastic which usually is pretty high quality(for a plastic product) but I would like to hear your opinion.

Thx,
