I <3 these. I think XXR is stepping it up. But the 531's are obviously a ccw classic knock-off.

They will probably come out with better sizing in 531's later on ..but yea they would sell fast as hell even in 17's

Seriously though..Whats with this new stagger of 1.5" between wheels. Same reason I didnt buy last years style and wont buy this years...At least make a damn 8.75/9.75!

I dont agree with you at all. Only difference is the the extra lug holes and a slight concave face. The classics look much more agressive with all the bolt holes on the outer edge. Just my :2c:....

shit sizes may have to do with cheaper metal not being safe in a larger size.

first thing i thought of.

..... So how much am i supposed to spend on rims? Cause I kinda wanted to do some traveling this year too.

Oh well, guess I will just save for advans instead.
hopefully I can have them in 2 years( 3% of your life), then maybe travel around the world a bit.

So what you're saying is that my $500 set of 17x8 -10 all around Advan Oni's are garbage cuz I didn't shell out at least $1400?
C'mon man, if you don't know by now, the richest people are some of the most frugal people around.
By the way, the 532's look like old school Work Ewing III's without the center cap.
I was liking the 530's until I saw them on that R32 but it was probably just the car and the tires it had that was turning me off.
I like the 531's but I'll wait until someone or XXR has them hard mounted on a car. I like the idea of having them in a small size too. I think a 531, in anything bigger than a 17", would look off.

not everyone has access to deals like that, or the time to spend waiting for them and tracking them down.
For people that just want some rims that arent stock 240 hubcaps, these rims are fine.

that comment i posted on is just ignorant people still fighitng that "knock off" thing.
The go-bots didnt ruin transformers, and knock offs arent the ruin of car companies.
people buying knock offs would never have bought the real rim at cost if the knock off wasnt available.

... and this whole country is a china knock off now days anyways.

BTW, not all Classics have those extra holes. That is the "Swiss" option for the race version, it basically just removes a little weight by drilling extra holes.

if you immediately thing of white person, your the racist.. i just see a bunch of stupid assholes and whores running around, it doesn't matter what color they are. they all get in my way, and cause me to get to work later than id like.

and back on topic, XXR needs more silver rims.. id love a set of polished 530's even if they were like 20 bucks extra each, it would be worth it.

I wish they were offered in something a little bit wider than 8 inches. I think the 532 would be perfect at 8.5 wide just to make them a bit more aggressive. I am considering getting a set of the 16x8 532's though.

Are you sure? Take a look at the spoke design, don't pay attention to the bolt's for the multi-piece design. I think it's nearly a dead ringer, even the fake tries to pull off some bolts and a very small difference in the way the spokes come to the barrel.

i like both 531 & 532, but if i had to choose just one i'd go for the 531. my car is still four lug so these are just more inexpensive options, but as far as it being a knockoff or not..., i could careless because lifes too short to care. as for those who want more plus sizes, i'd keep posting & maybe nlmotoring can answer the call. :2c:

not everyone has access to deals like that, or the time to spend waiting for them and tracking them down.
For people that just want some rims that arent stock 240 hubcaps, these rims are fine.

that comment i posted on is just ignorant people still fighitng that "knock off" thing.
The go-bots didnt ruin transformers, and knock offs arent the ruin of car companies.
people buying knock offs would never have bought the real rim at cost if the knock off wasnt available.

... and this whole country is a china knock off now days anyways.

I think Gobots were first.

After seeing it dead on I can see the similarities better. They are still a little different though and arent complete rip offs like the Drag CR-KAI's. Even so I still think that the majority of wheels have been ripped off by other companies. Take for instance Work VS-KF's, those are direct rip off's of American Racing Torque Thrusts, which are direct rip offs of Cragar SS's. Even car companies rip off aftermarket wheels and vice-versa. CR-Kai's are rip offs of old Camry (or Corolla, I forget) wheels, and Ford ripped off Cragar and AR for a few of their Mustang wheels.
Im really not trying to fuel a debate here at all BTW. I dont mind when I go to a concert and hear a cover song.

Hope xxr gets it sorted out. I understand its cost effective to make smaller size and width wheels and still have a great design, but I swear if the 531 and 530 were offered both sizes (16-18) and bigger width (x10) they would fly out the door so fast cost wouldn't even be an issue. Look at the 527s and 521s, a year later they are still flying off the shelves!

532s are nice too. They don't make 17's because I believe the market for Hondas is big. 18's kinda pushing it on Hondas, and Hondas is a big market for these wheels. Not to mention offset is virutually pointless on FWD. IMO

Could I spend $2000 on a set of Works? Sure. But I don't really need that extra few pounds of weight savings nor the strength of forged wheels. I'm not a hardcore racer. I'm so terrible at driving that I can't even bend a stock steel wheel, so I think the cast knockoffs will be just fine.

Can you accurately quantify "half ass"? I'm still not seeing a valid argument here.

ericcastro
02-20-2012, 10:09 AM
There isnt.

The argument is that cheaper companies just copy the product.
The reality is that they dont steal any R&D, otherwise there wouldn't be the difference in quality.

Companies make a extremely similar style and I see nothing wrong with that.
Especially since everyone complaining always forgets the companies they think are getting knocked off copied other companies.
How many BBS rims look jsut like inkies from the past.
Did greddy really invent the blow off valve?
Did Powered by Max really invent the coil over?

Of course not, they took existing tecnologies and designs and copied them.


Dont know why people into imports are such pussies.
I dont see American Muscle owners complaining about American Racing rims...
I think its just maturity. Eventually when people grow up, they realize they just want some fun rims and want to put thier money into other things and spread it more.

If a company invests money in a new product and get no return because it's ripped off, they go out of business. then the XXR's of the world have nothing to rip off then we have nothing. good job.

Truth is there is no such thing as originality. However, "legit/real" companies have been developing products that improve motor sports which is what you're paying for.

So please, if you like cheaper wheels/products, get them but don't be offended when people talk shit about your choice. If you don't like cheaper wheels, make a snide comment and be on your way. You can't save them all.

So why would I spend a large sum of money on coil overs?
It makes no sense, lol

So its the same with rims for me.

Now If i was competing several times a year, and had a car worth more then $1,500, then i could see spending some real money.

Truth is there is no such thing as originality. However, "legit/real" companies have been developing products that improve motor sports which is what you're paying for.

So please, if you like cheaper wheels/products, get them but don't be offended when people talk shit about your choice. If you don't like cheaper wheels, make a snide comment and be on your way. You can't save them all.


So you buy Sam's Cola? Walmart Jeans? TJMax T-shirts? Drive a Daewoo? Do you prefer the taste of Natty-Light? What about Target Brand Cereal?

Would you think I'm pimp if I spent $100 on a Chinese Rolex from eBay? Do you like "Tribute Bands" better than the real thing?


My problem with XXR and other crap wheels is the wheels themselves. You can clearly tell they are inferior. The finish sucks, the offsets and sizes suck, the are not really 2-3 piece wheels and have fake plastic rivets/bolts.

Why waste money posing? If I want ugly crappy offset wheels I'll rock some Mustang rims. At least then you are only shelling out $100 on Craigslist for 4 + tires.

I enjoy the shit out of kicking its ass :)

I like spending my money on things i view as more important in life.
I dont wanna get hung up on a car i could care less about.
I consider it a bad investment.


Then why are you on a car forum? Go join the "whatever is more important" forum.

You are hysterical, you'll be in the Fashion thread posting your overpriced street wear crap, but then praise the "Walmart" brand car parts and talk about "fiscal responsibility".

cause using it at the track twice in two years doesnt seem like a priority.

Its a hobby i have fun with.
Something you refuse to get, cause then all your shit talking is irrelevant.
But your argument is irrelevant anyways.
Under your belief system, you should only have the most expensive and best of everything.
You really must make millions then....

what street wear crap btw ??

and why would not wanting to sink every penny i have into my car exclude me from being on a car forum??

You've missed my point completely. If you are really about "Saving money, not spending money" then WASTING money on crap products is a WASTE of time.

Cry Once, Buy Once - if its not worth waiting or investing in, then don't do it. Sell your car, buy a Cavalier and move on. You don't have to buy $4,000 wheels new. But if you are spending $1,000 on new wheels and tires, why not save another $300 and spend 2-3 months to find the perfect set of used quality wheels with 70% tires.

Not only will you have something you can be proud of, you will also be supporting the community and helping a fellow member out.

I spent $910 on 4 brand new XXR 527's with 4 brand new tires, and new lugs.

These XXR's have the exact look and exact offset I was after. The finish of the wheels have no imperfections at all. The wheels bear also bear JWT certification. I will rarely push the car to the point that would put great stress on the wheels so I have no doubt they will last for as long as I own the car.

XXR gave me everything me, an average driver who doesn't race often, was looking for in a wheel. I take pride in the appearance of my car, and I'll never be ashamed to admit the wheels are XXR. I see no reason to pay more for some other brand.

Eric, time and time again you have shown you just "don't get it".

i only paid a few hundred for the XXR's I use now.
I expect to pay under $500 for the next set.
They are lighter then the works i have now, and the works will pay for the new rims.
Its not about saving money, i dont care about money at all.
Its about doing all the things in life i want to do.
I really just need another set of rims for the car for ASB.
The extra car money will be going into a SR20(rebuild/refresh)
plus an angle kit and a pair of knock off seats.
So Im already spending thousands to drift once this year.
I really only need the rims for one day at this point. lol

And when I buy XXR's, I get them from a member of the community that makes commision, and I get em mounted from a member of the community.

Im 35 years old, when you get this age,and realize that half your life is gone, your past the 50% mark, and everyday your closer to death,
You will finally get it.
Trust me, I've been were your at, you havent been here yet.

I dont care about rims and knock offs and all that bs.
I just wanna be able to drive the car a few times a year at the track, and i get to do that.
Im much more interested in trying to figure out how much money and training you need to fly one of those redbull wing suits.
I have bigger things i want done then pimping a ride.

I dont understand what people dont get about someone buying the cheapest RWD car they can find and spending the least amount of money on it so they can have a little fun once in awhile??

Those were ok prices, but used tires.

Nagging people for not buying name brands then actually suggesting they use USED tires to use on a driver is just ludicrous.

And before you even try to pull the "support the community" crap, consider that I bought these wheels and tires from a SPONSORING VENDOR.

I would have bought the wheels you linked if any of them looked anything like the wheel I wanted, or if they fit my 4 lug car ;) Which brings me back to my original point of why I bought them from XXR in the first place... because they were the wheel I wanted, regardless of price. The chances of tracking down the size, offset, color and lug pattern I WANTED in used was pretty much non-existant.

To me, the true WASTE of time and WASTE of money as you put it is settling for a wheel that isn't the one you wanted.

Because you are spending $1000 on garbage Chinese rims. $500 on rims + $400 on tires, + $shipping.

I just showed you what 15 seconds of looking will get you on the used market, Name-Brands at the same price.


I also just showed you what $100 will get you, and that comes with tires!!! Perfect for drifting spares!

So save me the BS of "oh I just need drift spares" because you are wasting a lot of money buying new XXRs and finding new or used tires and having the tires then mounted.

If you truly are two busy and two cash strapped to care, BUY SOME USED OEM WHEELS.

But WTF -shouldn't you be using Axel Grease to save some money for what's important in life instead of waisting money on European Product like some high school girl?

http://zilvia.net/f/off-topic-chat/139638-fashion-thread-252.html#post3863244

I use a hair product called Black and White.
Its the stuff Elvis used and its imported from europe.
Its softer then palmade, but washes out.
Works great with mexican hair.
It will help keep your hair back under the beenie line so it doesnt pop out.
Shit used to happen to me when mine was short, felt like tin tin.

Eric, when you get to be my age, you realize Less is More and anything worth doing is worth having effort put into it. If you really have so much else going on that you can't be bothered with scavenging up some used OEM wheels then maybe its time to narrow your interests. There is no point in saying "I've tried to play every music instrument but I suck at all of them". Pick one, get good at it.

They all had good tread. Tires are disposable, you use them, they wear out you get new ones. Use the +6-12 months of life they have to save for your next set. :nono:

If you are buying $400 tires for your $500 rims you are not exactly getting a quality tire anyways.

Yes because I'm sure you would buy XXR rims if they were $2500 a set, because you love the style so much!

I spent $910 on 4 brand new XXR 527's with 4 brand new tires, and new lugs.

I'm not offended.

My original question has still be unanswered through all this.

Noone has managed to provide a factual argument and/or data that shows XXR wheels are "shit" or "crap" or that there is a reason to not buy them for light driving use.

So far it's just been "brand whoring"

exactly.

I dont get it either.
I want a set of rims in my size that cost $500 or less.
Thats my budget for what I want for my car.
I really dont care enough to look around and do the sizing and everything, when i am happy with some XXR's that will get daylied a bit and see the track a couple times a year.

It free's my money up to be spent on things like hair grease :)

Or tons of other interest i have.
Having "brand" rims doesnt make me have any more or less fun with my car.
It works for me and I am happy.
I dont know why people care so much.
I always wish people just were happy others were also having fun being into some of the same interest they are.
o wonder I dont here much anymore, its not about fun, its such a downer.

And you've still failed to prove or show in any way that XXR is an inferior product. If you're basing your argument purely on the fact that they are cast copies of other wheels, then you're obviously forgetting Enkei's entry level products which are both cast and copied from other designs. But I don't hear you saying that Enkei makes "shit" wheels.

You keep glancing over the part where I clearly state that I have a lot of pride in the appearance of my car. I could care less about the brand, the fact is my fresh dark grey paint looks great with my chromium black 527's because thats the way I wanted it. My car is clean, free from any dents or scratches whatsoever and has a flawless stock interior. Come marvel at the fact that I bought 3 new plastic fasteners from Nissan at $3.09 each just to make sure that there wasn't a single missing fastener IN MY TRUNK and then try to tell me I don't take pride in my car.

Didnt know I would look poor.
Sucks you judge people on how much money they spend.

And eric doesn't even know how to multi-quote correctly. It's ok though he has more important things to do. His car is not his top priority therefore buying lesser products is A-OK.

Now wheres the link to Godspeed arms and Megan coilovers? I have the sudden urge to buy some now since my car isn't my top priority, along with a fresh set of XXRs.

Yeah seriously..

So when do these arrive? I looked through the thread and see no mention of an ETA, early seems really vague. Early to me sounds like first quarter, which is almost up?

Jesus christ shut the fuck up people. If you don't like XXR wheels then why the hell even come to an XXR thread?

Well, I came in to see who they were copying now. I don't know about anybody else.

I was always thinking I wanted Enkei ES6, but those 530s are really enticing. Wishlisted for now.

I like the 531's, I don't care that they are a knockoff. Why spend so much money on wheels when I can put that extra money into other things on my car?

My car as it sits now is a 76 280z with a LT1 out of a 94 Trans Am, I still need to get the widebody kit and tune my engine. For the cost of the XXR ones I can get it done alot faster than if I spent 2k+ on just rims with out tires. \


NLM get XXR to offer a 17x10 and 17x9 at least....

Im prolly 99% selling my 531 preorders the second i get them and buying different wheels instead....

Ordered them in the first hour of preorder. They were just going on the beater, but the beater became a project and i want something nicer. Ordered the 16x8s +25 in the regular silver finish, none of the chrome or whatever else they have

No such thing as broke when you have liquid assets. XXR is just doing a great job making knock-offs.

Yup but they only come in 15 n 16s I think but they look better then these xxr reps cuz they're not cross drilled with a bunch of holes like them
