sorry, only one user with 521s per forum. It's not like these are as generic as volks or something

We're probably the only 2. Since we're in different states, I think its okay.

On a serious note, are you running spacers?
I'm going for a 20mm up front w/ 245/35 and a 10mm out back with 285/35. Lowered on BCs. Hoping I wont rub.

Depends on how low u go but I would highly recommend no spacers on the front. I'm lowered 1.2" on the front and even when I had 5 mm spacers my tire was hitting my fender cracking and chipping the paint. Now I'm running no spacers on front and I'm also on 245/35

Interesting...

I'm planning on running -3 camber. Think I can get away with a spacer then?

Nah it'll be at a functional height. These cars like negative front camber since they're so damn heavy haha.

Plus I put less than 300mi a month on my car so tire wear doesn't matter to me.

I will let you know what I find out. Starting to think I'm gonna have to raise the front and add as much negative camber as possible for the 20mm spacer to fit.
What were your camber specs when you ran the 5mm?

It's a Washington plate; Just kinda blurred out lol.

Thanks everyone. I liked the XXR design in it's own way too, but I like these more. I think they achieve the look that I have been trying to get.

Haven't done the rears yet. They are still OEM. Just trying to source some good AP Racing rears but they're not the easiest to come by. People sell the whole set and won't part with just the rears. And brand new is too much for a dirty kid like me.

And no, it is still Serengeti Sand. This is the beauty of it lol. Different tones depending on light.

Man I wish you kept the mesh style wheels on. Good to replace the XXRs but damn they looked better.
I could be a little biased...but to each their own. The SS color is rare enough, now yours definitely can separate itself from the few others.
Great work!
