    Default Wheels for the R

    I need a little input/advice on wheels. I love these gold XXR 527's, I think they'll look great on the R and they're not spendy but I'm not sold on the multiple bolt pattern. I've talked to a couple guys here and they were suggesting OZ Superleggera's or Superturismo's but they don't have the concave style I like in the XXR's. Does anyone have any suggestions to similar wheels?

    XXR 527's


    My other question is on offset for the rear. The current Aristo's are 7.5" wide with an ET of 38 and I would like to run a 15mm spacer since that's what I remember running on the 337. It looked good and had no issues rubbing. Now if I get the XXR's they are 8.75" wide(weird I know) and have an ET of 35. With the wider wheel and the same spacer would it push the wheel lip farther out closer to being flush with the fender or pull it in or be the same?

    Blue car need blue wheel, I don't know subaru kind of has the blue car/gold wheel market covered.
    I vote Superturismo's gt's or Alleggerita HLT

    i think the tsw nurburgring wheels look really good on the MK6's

    but if i had rising blue on my MK6 i would go with a dark wheel, black or dark silver. unfortunately i have shadow blue so i'll stick with bright silvers.

    For cheap stuff it's hard to beat the miro 111 on a mk4 imo.
    Listen twice as much as you talk.

    All those suggestions are nice but it's been done before and I don't like them.

    Do something creative cam. You are artsy, and think you should do something different than everyone with a R.

    These are pretty close to what you wanted minus the color

    well the art/graffiti wheel idea has been done. I'll keep looking but it'll be hard to change my mind off the gold. Honestly I havent seen an R with gold wheel in these parts.

    Those Bremmers look good. I am a huge fan of the Miro 111s as well though. I feel like a cool silver/grey color might be best. Just not a huge fan of the gold/blue combo but it is your car.

    I think these rims look fantastic in gold. I was just trying to find a pic close to what they would look like on your R.

    It's an R32, spend a little more and look for the same style with 5 lug holes. I don't have an opinion on color, style, size, etc.. It's your car. But please don't run multi lugge wheels unless they're covered with a cap
