I feel your pain man. once I bring my car home, I'm going to have to crack a few beers, and make a good old american impulse buy on what ever I like most that night! haha

I really like CCW's too but my wife hates them. she thinks there ugly, so you know how that goes.

still cant find anywhere that sells xxr 526's

NLMotoring.com is the place I was looking to buy from when I was considering putting them on my old GT.

Just check that out. Good prices! I think i'm gonna pick a set of the 526's up

Hey guys, I had a set of the XXR 526's, and the do look and fit awesome, BUT, the chrome job that they have on them is EXTEMELY CHEAP! I had some type of staining on 2 wheels 6 months after buying/installing them, and NLMotoring has NO WARRANTY for them. And when I say staining, the top layer of chrome had faded and yellowed BADLY!

BUYERS BEWARE of XXR wheels. If you are anal about your wheels, save your cash.

Make sure you CALL them and see if they can make the wheel in a 5 lugh configuration. I know on the 521 they do..........

Good luck, good choice. I can't wait to see how they will look.

Which color option you going with?

I know what you mean. I had the same issue with my FR500s because where I had stored them had too much moisture I think. did you have your car garage or outside when the wheels faded? also do you put on a lot of miles? My car is always garaged and rarely driven, so I hope they wolnt do that! Thanks for the tip!

I would personally, stay away from black chrome...I have never seen black chrome that looks really good. Car's with black chrome always just look "off" to me. But that's just me being weird.

I'd stick with the gloss black, charcoal would be nice if you wanted some contrast.
