XXR 502 wheels?? Need your opionion

Need your opinion on the XX 502 wheels guys...what you think? I only know of one person on this site who use to have them, and no one seems to have really discussed them

http://www.xxrwheels.com/sportmax_502.shtml

sizes: 20x8.5 +35 (2" lip), 20x10 +35 (3.75" lip)

Colours: Chromium Black, Machined or Hyper Silver

Price: $850 shipped

I have a black 04 coupe with: Brembo, cross drilled/slotted rotors, front and rear splash guards, N1 lip, 350z revised springs

If I get these they will be matched with BC Racing coils and extended gold lug nuts to match the Brembo rotors. But car won't be slammed since it's my DD

Here are some of the pics of the wheels installed if found on the interwebs:

They look great to me. Just keep in mind not much respect for the low end things around here. XXR is a really cheap brand, but I havent' heard any stories of them being bad wheels or anything at all. Just the elitists around here will hate them, even though they look fine. Can't blame'em. If I had 4 grand to throw at wheels I'd do it too lol. I'd say you should rock'em. Center caps are funky though, but that's an easy fix! -points to my avatar-

Totally disagree. They look like a cross between the T1S and the Volk GTS and that's a really good thing. However I don't have a clue about the quality of the rims, but they are a 2 piece.

Save up for nicer wheels. i made the mistake of getting cheap wheels once. They didnt cause any issues but they were really heavy and that's when i realized that i should have waited.

i like xxr wheels, but i think that they just have other wheels that look better on our car...ive had 006 and currently have 521's...and yes they are a lower priced wheel..but i have had nothing but complements from both sets. my 006 were with the red lip and i actually painted my 521's lip red as well lol...but i just think that style xxr wheel is better fitted on subie's...like that pic...oh and side note, the offset of xxr wheels is real high, i run 25mm spacers with my wheels.
