hell yea, just bought xxr 521's in 20x8.5 +32 for my m35x..no staggered for me sadly. quality seems ok, enough for everyday driving. i spent my wheel monies on my volks and rpf's on both my z's lol, so a $1200 wheel/tire package seems fair.

nah, theyl be heavy, but the funny part is that compared to a Work VS XX, they will be very similar. Work is a good wheel, dont get me wrong, but they are still heavy as all hell.
Id assume about 35-37 lbs on the high side for the larger 20 inch rears.. approx 50-56 ea w a tire on it.
Will be just fine for me. Im thinking of powdercoating the centers when i get them.. maybe a dark copper/gold/bronze.. 225 to mask, sandblast and powdercoat the full set in town here. Cant beat it.

I like them, with a nice lip like that on the 526, i wonder what's the offset. I am disappointed though, not available in 19's

I'd be curious to know the weight on these. Can you or your friend snap and post a pic of a wheel on the scale when they arrive? Much appreciated!

well, wish that was the case, but since i actually BOUGHT a set last week, i did call the manufacturer and ask. The person i talked to said they dont have exact weight in front of them, but the size i ordered was in that weight range.

I believe you and your friend are talking about 18s which would be lighter.. re-read my post. I was talking about 20s.

I think he thought you were talking about the weight of the VS-XX. A Work wheel soldier stepped in quickly to defend his king.

this has been done with 265, 275 and even 285 fronts. i'm sure you can run with a stretched tire if you desire to do so

However, if you are lowered enough without a camber kit then you will wear out your tires quickly.

I'm not extremely knowledgeable in stretching tires and the whole hellaflush thing cause I think it's nonsense. But I do know that the lower you go with factory components the worse your tires will wear. The factory front arms offer NO adjustability.

Buy some Kinetix brand upper control arms from Kyle at Import Parts Pro and call it a day. If you're going low enough get the SPC rear camber arms with toe bolts.
