Here's a current picture of my car, just those mud flaps are now black..hahaIMG_0677 copy.jpg


I was thinking either one of these two wheels.

I love the mesh type wheels. I'd kill for some BBS, but I'm not rich. haha


feedback please! :hatsoff:
 
Just put a set on my wifes car. 527's in Gold in 18x8.75 +35. Nice looking wheel. They are heavy though and the QC was quite lacking I thought. Fairly affordable wheel.

They come in some fairly aggressive sizes and offsets. NL motoring seems to be a large XXR dealer. I got mine through FRSPort.com
NL didn't have them in stock but FR did.

NL also has some darn good pricing on lugnuts.
 
what colors her car? yeah man, I love the XXR's but I love the Avids. yeah, I was looking on NL. do you have any pics of the car?
 
I'd think about when it comes time to clean the wheels, do I want something that's easy to get my brush between the spokes.
 
Shes driving a Polished Metal Metallic. The color combo with the XXR gold actually looks good together. I was surprised. Her wheels currently don't fit though. Having to roll the front fenders, shave the rears, and run some neg. camber.
 
XXR527 on my friend's FG2.

9.75" +25 on back, 8.25" +35 on front. Why? I don't know. Lol.

And I think these are Avids that were on my other friend's FG2 (car traded in for a GTI). I'm not sure what the specs on the wheels are.

The only shot I took so far. Right after getting mounted. Please don't mind the white stuff.

As much as I HATE Replica Wheels, if I had to choose, I'd go with the XXR's.
 
I never minded that they weren't the "real deal" as long as people didn't put Volk/Rays stickers and center caps on them.

I have a nice set of Konigs that I like very much. If I had a faster more powerful car I would probably get better wheels. They ain't all bad.

I will say the QC on the XXR is a little off.
