I have a +20 setup with no front camber kit... haha in the front there is only a .1 degree difference. The problem with my camber is only in the rear it is about .5 degrees different from one side to the other, otherwise the natural camber on our cars is very good.

i had -1 degrees all around at about 1.3/1.5" drop, but just lowered it to 1.75 all around and my camber went to -1.4 and -1.7 in the front and i kept the rear at -1 in the back (camber kit). my toe was near zero and i had wear from camber in the front at the mild drop.

i have a front camber kit but haven't installed it yet. i'm worried that there isn't enough room to move it back to -1 so i'm looking to see if anyone is already using a front camber kit.

worst case i guess i can install it, get an alignment, and see if it rubs, but would be better if i heard from someone here first

I also have only rear camber kit and also have 1.3-1.5 drop and no camber wear on the tires. I guess i will have to get it aligned once i install my xxr- where do you go for an alignment? Cuz i had places refuse to take me cuz they say that body kit- the car wont be able to get on the ramp

I just ordered a set of XXR 530s as well. Quick question. What type of lug nuts and wheel locks are you all using that won't damage the wheels? Also, does it matter what type of hub centric rings to buy i.e. aluminum, plastic, or polycarbonate?

spline locks, project mu locks, or locks with an internal key. once you go past 25mm in diameter for the lock key then you risk damaging the wheels.

i've always used plastic hubcentric rings

Does it matter the length of the locks too?

Yes if not rolled. Most likely if rolled. Final solution: Get 225 tires

Anybody have pic of a NBP TL with hyper silver 530s??

Still on the fence about buying these. Not crazy about the 10 hole drill and the flatness of where the lugs sit (vs like AG m310s or something). But kind of really want to get these...

Where can you find the single drilled? I emailed nlm and some other place that carried xxr's, but they said they didnt have them.

Id really prefer the single drill. Looks way more betta.

^^Really. I looked on ebay, emailed motorsportR and nlm and cant find them. I know that you have them from reading the threads. Just looking for a little help. These things obviously arent that easy to track down.

Hey guys, been lurking for a while, read through a large portion of this thread and wanted to get opinions on a set of these. You are welcome to quote previous posts if i'm repeating a question.
I have an 06 Base 5at - stock. I plan on doing a slight drop (either Tein H techs, or H&R sports). I'm deciding right now on offset +20 or +33 with the 18x8.75's? This is my daily driver so i'd like to keep everything as practical (but sexy) as possible. I definitely dig the looks of +20 more, but would rather not have to deal with rolling the fenders if I can. Also, what tire should I go with? I've seen alot of 225/40, and 235/40. I live in Idaho so i'd like to protect the wheels as much as possible. Thanks guys
