darkside Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I got my xxr 522 model in 18x8.5 for about $600 shipped from here http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-Sportmax-Wheels-s/32.htm 522 are similar to the grids, just have a extra spoke, took qbou a week, they shipped from California, I would recommend this site, they also carry Exclusive sizes and colors only on their site. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dombek2k7 Posted November 16, 2010 Author Share Posted November 16, 2010 those do look SICK on your car... i like that bright gold... but i had bronze on prevoiusly. so if i was to go with the 522's i would go with the black chrome. you went with a wide tire also then i would... with the 522's i was thinking 17x9 as long as i didnt have to roll my fenders, i would probly just need to raise my ride height. the 521's ths biggest size i can go with those are 18x8.5 which is more then fine but i wanted something with a bigger lip... is there anyone that could do a photoshop for me for both wheels?? darkside, you have a side length shot(rear to front) so i can see how much they stick out?? What i would liek to do is low an wide without rolling my fenders because there isnt anyone out here in eastern ct that knows what rolling the fenders means! ty everyone i didnt think this post would take off Here's my link to pics http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/xxr-522-18x8-5-48offset-146627.html?p=3116870 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkside Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I wanted the semi concave look, but dont want the 18x9.5 look either, if I could do it again 18x8 w 225/40/18, but a friend of mine had the fender roller so I said what the he'll go for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darkside Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Huh, paid $117 a rim and about $100 for shipping, good deal in my book, rotas were grids were 800-900 plus shipping. I recently (sold) shipped some rims from fl to Hawaii and shipping was 135 bucks. Right now they have a rebate of 40-60 bucks of set on site I recommended.

Matty2Hotty Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Liking the new 527s. Not sure a 18x9.75 with +20 would fit. I know the 8.75 +35 will though, just not sure on the difference in concavity of the wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutbackXT05 Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Im really liking the 522's really good prices too. Only question now is sizing. Im felling the 19x8.5 +38 to fill out my outbacks fender flares. Im pretty sure an 18x8.5 +48 would rub the heck outta my suspension without stretching the tires and +30 just seems way to much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
