Question XXR Wheels

Alright so I've been thinking about just buying a set of xxr wheels but I'm not sure which one I want to get. I'm stuck between the 527 and the 530. Which one do you guys think look better?



Xxr 527





Xxr 530





I have the same color TL








What offset would look best with the 530?

I debated this same issue for months before I decided on the 530's. Both are excellent looking wheels. It really just comes down to what you like and your style. As far as offset goes, I would do the +20 for either wheel. +20 8.75 width, is a PERFECT fitment for our 3g TL's. but that's just me. I can't stand sunken in wheels. So your options are,

More concave, flushness, clears brembos (if you have them) - +20 with a 225/40/18 tire

Or

More sidewall protection, less concave, will NOT clear brembos - +33 with a 235/40/18 tire

The one they think looks the best is ON THEIR CAR. The question is; which one do you think looks better, since they will be going on YOUR car.

I need more coffee before I read these kind of craptastic posts.

I love my 527s, but either ones look good its all what you prefer, make your car what you think is cool, not what everyone else thinks is cool
