I may buy some 526s for the street, then both sets of enkei wheels can be for track. Volk for the track is also looking good.

I had XXRs for a while and the lip was VERY thin metal. They bent pretty easily and I got rid of them. Maybe they have stepped their game up but they bent too easily. I was actually polishing the lip with an orbital buffer and the buffer skipped and it dented the lip. A PADDED buffer bent the lip. F that.
I had the XXR 006s in 19x8.5 and 19x9.5.
Maybe the 526 is an update to correct any issues. I see the 19" sizes are gone for now. That looks just like the 006 wheel but with lower offsets and better widths.
