I know!!! I am still waiting on a return call from a connection Cali

my mistake i don't have the sr35, i have some muteki ebay locking lugs (closed spline) and those fit with the keys (keys are 21 mm in diameter).

the locks for sr35 are 24 mm in dia. and the locks for sr48 are 26 mm in dia. so according to ebelp the 26 mm is too big and i know the 21 is small enough...question is if 24 (sr35) would fit. if i can find some locally i'll try it and return them if not, just need to find a place to buy them

I thought so...But I wasn't going to say anything...I was to busy with other things here anyways...Posting my SR48's for sale and getting my NITTO tires at the door

The missing tire will be delivered tomorrow. It was out of stock and needed to be drop shipped from NITTO.

OK, so after talking with John some this morning it is clear as day with no doubt!!! The socket that comes with the SR48's WILL NOT WORK with the XXR 530's with 5 holes or 10 holes. UNLESS!!! You don't mind shaving, scratching, damaging the inner walls to each lug hole. To avoid this, you will need a "THIN" wall 17mm socket. And still!!! You would need to be very very careful since it only frees up a hair of a spacing gap to work with.

This morning I also put together a small demo of this popular talked about issue. I carefully cut the bottom of the SR48 pkg and removed ONLY the socket. Then I took the socket from my DRAG NEO CHROMES for comparison purposes only. Below is some examples w/pics with the differences and space I believe I/we will have when using a thinner wall socket. Not 100% for sure since I have not left to go buy one. I only used what I have laying around and there is a difference.

SR48 Socket fitment:



Fitment with both sockets: SR48 (left/dark in color) DRAG (right/silver)




DRAG socket removed to show a example of the limited space to work with and a lug in place:



2 different designs of sockets but still showing the difference in thickness:



...HOPE THIS HELPS SOME

I would be able to mount if I had my TMPS's and if I use the NEO CHROME lugs. Other then that, my options are as follow if using the SR48's. ~ #1 Grind down the outter wall of my exsisting SR48 socket (I have a friend who did his and just told me about it at advance auto parts. He had the same issue with his wheels) or... #2 Order through TIRE RACK their GORILLA thin wall 17mm deep sockets specifically made for this issue and purpose, since I am waiting for my sensors anyways.

i got my wheels installed with 235/40 tires on Friday and it looks great but I'm having some issues going over dips in the road or bumps. one of my tires def makes a bad scraping sound anyone else have this problem?

i'm stock height which is why the rubbing surprised me but soon putting on springs and getting an alignment. maybe i'll just have to roll fenders to eliminate any doubt. these wheels with the +20 definitely stick out just a bit more than i was hoping in the front

...at the same time, if he goes lower there is a natural camber that also starts to take place that may eliminate the rubbing. Doesn't make sense sockr but its true

sockr1 - Are those 9.5'' + 20 all around? The front looks like it sticks out too far in those pics. Maybe once you lower it and add some negative camber it they will look better.

they are 8.75" +20 all the way around. they do stick out a little bit but not that much (the gap makes it seem worst for sure). once i lower i will post pics. some other members are running the same set up and their wheels came in a bit from the negative camber

Hey was up man...I know I know...Me to. I am going through a few things here and there that are preventing me from doing so.

1.) Seems like I am having a TMPS sensor issue on a set I just purchased. They may work just fine, but on a physical aspect, it seems like one of the screw on sleeves that screw on the outside of the valve stem itself is a lil ate up and does not screw all they way down to the rubber washers.

2.) When I figure out the TMPS issue out, I then will install the TMPS and tires to the wheels. But not mout the tires until I get my INGALL camber kits installed. Which is "Planned" on Thursday... "Planned" was they key word...Normally does not happen the way I plan

3.) And just as I mentioned about plans not working out, I may need to travel to the Orlando area to seal a deal with lilsid for a JL HD900-5 amp...

...By the time I am ready and clear to mount these wheels and tires...I will want something NEW...lol!

I have been looking at this rims for few months now and making a decision to go for the 18 x 8.75 at 20 offset. I saw a accord with XXR 527 and to my liking they stick out to much, does anyone know if they are really that similar?

The actual design does not make the difference of how much it pokes out. Its all on the offset and in some cases the care itself. For example, TL and a RSX won't always have the same appearance on a set of wheels the same size in all aspects. Or a TL and a LEXUS IS250/350 won't have the same appearance or stance with one size of wheels. There is plenty of 530s on a TL for you to see the exact wheel with specs fitted for you to get a good idea. It would not matter 530 to 527s except a deep dish design vs a concave. (Excluding spacers and camber adjustments) That is it. The lip of the wheel will still end up being in the same place if all the specs are the same.

Hope that helps some...

My issues with these was the paint stripping off the lugs themselves from use of the key.

I use a muteki spline lock from eBay. Doesn't look as good as these other ones but is titanium and provides locks on each hole. Plenty of key room too it's only 21 mm diameter

I did that but I guess I got tired of it after taking off the wheels so much to adjust my ride height when I just got the coils

so the plastic bag is for installing or removing the lugs themselves to prevent premature or excessive damage? Do I have this correct? It sounds GENIUS!

It's only really necessary for if you paint your lugnuts, like Aaron did. Otherwise, you'll just look like a weirdo with a ziploc obsession.

if that link doesn't work try post #465 in this thread, it has the clickable link (i copied and pasted the "abbreviated link" from that post since ebay is blocked at my work)

i also contacted that seller and instead of making them a lower offer on ebay i asked if they would throw in an extra key for the buy it now price and they did
