Go with chromium black. That would look really nice with DMM

^ I was actually leaning more toward the matt but only because i saw dougboy and this thread

https://acurazine.com/forums/showthr...&highlight=DMM

I bet the chromium would look good too

Not sure if you were talking to me or not but i have the neuspeed supercup kit that will be going on once i get a good weekend on the lowest perch. I think I will get the 18x8.75+20 with a 225/40 tire may need to roll and pull though

jwr0ng626

iTrader: (1)

I doubt you'll need to pull.. tldude is running those specs and I think all he has is a roll

Black_Hawk_TL

yes HT spec type1

Thankfully I didn't order these. I called them NLMotoring and they were giving me a possible shipment of mid-Jan, now it is March. :/

May still order these when they actually have it in stock.

Black_Hawk_TL

that's correct...that is what joe from nlmotoring told me ill get it in mid March.

I like the style of the 530s and can't wait to see them installed. But I hope your credit cards weren't charged more than a good-faith deposit...kinda defeats the purpose of a pre-ordering discount if you put it on a cc and then carried the interest for an extra three months on wheels you're not using.

murph145

nice but isnt there other wheels very similar in look and price range that can be had sooner than March? The concave mesh style seems popular with different manufacturers just curious?

Black_Hawk_TL

the guy at nlmotoring said it wont be charged til they receive it.

not sure of any other reps that look like this.. i'm very indecisive when it comes to wheels.. lol I still like these wheeels, but I want something with a lip now. after seeing the vs tx these have dropped on my list a little haha

I think the center bore is 64.x .. 73.1 is 350z or G35 coupe

I just saw this thread randomly as I have been planning to buy some new wheels.

I am not familiar with wheel fitmets at all. I am currently at stock height with my 08 type s. I plan to get the H&R sport springs for a slightly lower look this summer.
I do not want to worry about rubbing/rolling/stretching/pulling or any other fitment work.
Please help me to get the wheel and tire specs that will give the best look.

on another note are these wheels really only ~$145 per wheel? that seems really cheap when similiar wheels are alot more.

thanks guys!

18x8.75 +20 with 225/40/18 tires you shouldn't need to roll with these specs if you're only dropped on H&R springs.

Yes, Its really inexpensive... its not up to par in quality as forged wheels but I personally have friends using them (track and daily) without problems. It doesn't mean everyone won't have issues with them, i'm just stating from personal experience

Geminiking

Been seeing these wheels alot lately but they are growing on me.

Silvertl88

are hub centric rings needed with this wheel ? and if so what size?


i would also like an azine opinion on lugs to get. i have an ASM type s and i am going with the chromium black wheel.
i know i want open ended lugs but not sure if i should go with black or the neo chrome.

please help me decide

myron

iTrader: (4)

where are you guying them from? Usually the seller can tell you what the center bore on wheels is, and your car is 64.1mm bore I think. Then get rings with outside diameter what ever the wheels are, and the inside diameter with 64.1.

Silvertl88

thanks myron...i want to buy everything i need from nlmotoring.com

now im trying to find a tpms for the new wheels. i found these http://tiresensorwarehouse.com/facto...nsor-1057.html

not sure if they will work and if i will need anything else for them to be installed properly.

im still undecided on the color lugs to get...all opinions will be helpful

FCVadi

iTrader: (3)

if the wheels come with a hubcenter of 73 then you will need a hubcentric ring to fill in from the 73.x to the 64.x of the TLs

not sure how they do sizing.. just know you need it to help with any possible vibrations... i also dont know if you have to have it but from what I read on threads it is best to have it

the specs look just like the XX 527 .. if that is the case use these two links to help

first is fitment depending on your offset and tires

https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-tires-wheels-suspension-97/fit-discussion-xxr-527-folks-going-agressive-might-fail-hard-814477/

the secon are pictures of folsk with the XXR 527 .. not the same look but you can see how the different sizes and fitment looks

et+20.. has poke.. will.. poke.. and poke real good

as for fender rolling.. I think it comes down to how you are dropped

Silvertl88

thanks for the guidance guys...i bought the xxr 530's last night in 18x8.75 +20 all around.
i am super stoked to get them, hopefully i get an email from nlmotoring about when they will be shipping.

i think i have decided to buy my H&R sport springs and have those installed before i decide on tire specs. that way i can have the car the way it will be to get the best look and fit.

FCVadi

iTrader: (3)

^^ did they recommend a specific tire size? I liked the xx3 527 but I think I like these better.. just dont know which tire size I want to run.. I dont want super stretch

Silvertl88

i did not speak to nlmotoring about tires but what i gathered so far from people here is that 225/40/18 is a good size tire to run. But most people are lowered 2" or more.

i will not be going that low (only ~1.5" on H&R sport springs) and i also do not want a really stretched tire.

i think i will have the springs installed then decide on tire specs

mattyboy3288

what offset is going to be needed to clear the Brembos?

Silvertl88

Im hoping the +20 will because i have a type s and bought +20. ive seen this question in other posts but haven't seen a direct answer yet.

hopefully someone can chime in that already has these or the 527's

FCVadi

iTrader: (3)

the +20 clear since they do for the xxr 527 and these look to have the similar lines.. I think the +35 clear as well but I have to go back on the xxr 527 thread and see who did the +35

FCVadi

iTrader: (3)

found this link about clearing bbk

it looks like +35 wont clear.. but +20 does clear

^ Thanks!

Zeus<3Acura

how many inches are you dropped? this looks ideal to what i want. with 18" wheels of course

Silvertl88

Does anybody know the latest news about when nlmotoring will be getting in/shipping these wheels?

Black_Hawk_TL

im in line and will be getting them in mid march ....so i guess march

TheChamp531

iTrader: (3)

I'm leaning towards these just because both sellers of Volks and Work wheels I wanted decided to bail on me. Maybe it is a sign that I need to buy cheaper wheels.

Deerole

Im in for the pics once there on. Hopefully you get em b4 i get the xxr 526's...might change my mind
