i finally was able to get some new rims for my car and i went with the XXR 521 18x8.5 offset 25. i have to give tons of credit to Al (StillHere153) for all the help he gave me. literally day after day texting asking about rims/tires brands/styles, sizes offsets and of course price! but i made up my mind and i have to say i am more then happy with the decision. the quality of the rims are good and i have tested them out with a few potholes and they passed.

+/- Comments Wanted please.

 

Not a fan of the bolts, BUUUUUUTTTT....

...they look great on your ride. Well done.

 

sorry for the links not working, i never get them to work

 

thank you very much for your input i appreciate it

 

I like them xxr is making some decent looking reps these days

 

Looks good man. Did u have to go w/ that much of a stretch tho?

 

jwr0ng626- im on the second to lowerst perch on my kit so im pretty low and i didnt want to do any other mods fenders or anything. it really doesnt look bad at all i will get a closeup picture. btw how did u get the picture to post? please tell me lol

 

loll looks good man, I was gna go w/ these wheels too

so for the image, in the message box, above it (where u have option of changing font n stuff) theres a little picture box that says "insert image" click that, insert ur link and it should work lol

 

 

damn i feel like a ass now.. good look man!!

 

Did u align it yet? are you within specs?

curious to see how much space u have left from tire to fender

 

About 7 - 9mm

 

so most likely a 235/40 can fit after a roll-job?

 

I cannot see why not. So long as you're not slammed, should fit just fine.

 

not bad at all, Id like to see some close ups of the fitment!

 

I'm putting these wheels on my TSX (but in gold). I've been waiting for almost two months for them to come in. After seeing your pics, I'm even more excited to put them on!

BTW, the wheels look bad ass on your car.

 

im going to clean it up soon and take some better pictures weve had rain on and off and i havent got a chance to clean it up nicely and take some good pictures yet. as far as the alignment it was done and yes i am in specs
thank you guys for the comments very much

 

damn. i really really love those things. and the price is amazing.

 

they are that bad, looks good

 

^^^ have to agree, turned out good

 

Thank you guys for the input. It feels good knowing people like the ride and especially if they aren't bbs. Teenagers came up to me and was like your wack for not getting bbs. I was like yeah but I also love the fact that these are easier to replace if they mess up.

 

^def an advantage.... until they get a job, I don't think they should be talking lol

 

haha yeah i agree man.. but oh well i like how it looks on my car even if they arent BBS

 

fuck those little kids.
srsly. reps are fine, most do better than big names, like OZ

 

Like McDonalds... Im loving it!!! lol looks really good... Where in CT are you? Im looking to get xxr522 19x8.5 and 19x10 maybe ordering this weekend

 

Thanks man! I appreciate it alot , I live in Danbury. I recommend XXR so far I had no issues at all

 

looks really nice....even though Ive seen these up close in Gold and on black that be the color I would of went with but yours looks nice as well

 

Man thats beautiful. I have a NBP tl and was planning on getting those too!!!
So sexy

You have to run spacers on those by the way?

 

i must say i havent had an issues or regrets with these XXR's.. as far as spacers i didnt need to run any..
thank you very much

 

more pics!

 

car looks super clean.... for reps these are pretty fresh...

very nice..

 

more pic x2! can you include some from the back and looking down on them from above. I wanna get some of these but not sure what offset. I don't want to have to roll fenders. Also could you include some close ups I am not sure if i wanna go with 18 or 19. Thanks for posting this thread up i was undecided on rims until i saw these!

 

Love the combo man!! The dark color of the car with the silver contrast...you did a good job!

 

Enough said.

 

thank you everybody for the comments i appreciate it.. i am in the process of getting more photos of the rims/car when i am not working or not it town.. i will try to get better angles and up close images of the rims and the fitment..

 

Looks great! I have the exact same set up but on a TSX (: I love it!

 

nice man. i love the setup on the nbp... looks nice

 

heheheh, im a girl (: but thanks!

 

just made my wheel selection even harder :/. Looks really good on NBP! Excellent choice!

 

Haha oops sorry. Geez AZ should have a male/female icon lol. But still I like the way it looks ma'am haha! Anything else done to it?
