There have been some horror stories, but I think I've heard more Rota stories. Tons of people run XXR though, since everyone and their brother has them on their 6GA.

Xxr fine the 1st time, absolutely crap the 2nd. Never going back. Chrome was peeling in like 2 weeks, I pay to have tires dismounted/mounted AND shipping both ways to find out iF I get warranty? F that. More than they are worth again.

I bought the 527s. I'm happy with them. Worth the money if you're on a budget. Definitely a good wheel for the money.

I'm running XXR 527's. I paid $500 for all four from nlmotoring.com. I really can't complain. The paint does come off a bit too easily, but I planned on plastidipping them eventually.

I'm not sure how crack resistant they are since I'm like a grandma when driving over road imperfections. lol

The member todd_cards on here(Instagram too) has the 530s in gold.

I also bought mine from nlmotoring, best pricing I found. I didn't have a problem with paint coming off easily, but I also got mine powder coated after a year. Haven't had a problem with them cracking in 2 years(knock on wood). I've hit some pretty bad bumps too.

Just a roll. I'm not running any crazy specs though. 18x8.75 +35 with a 15mm spacer rear and 5mm front.
