Go to the "View on car" section and look for yourself, or Google it.

But... They both are almost equally the same. They both have their own attributes that bring out the stance of the xA. The 527 is nice because is a simple thin spokey pattern that will make the xA look "light and quick" and will really draw attention. The 962 are fat and will bring out the fat blobish shape of the xA (not a bad thing) and will give it a nice fat look. If you aren't dropped and don't plan on it, both of these rims are useless. They will only look their best with some springs or coilovers. My opinion is to go with the 527's, but in black.

i'm on eibach sportlines. both of these come in 17 smallest and will be wrapped with 225-45-17. i know both are similar that's why it's so hard to decide haha. i'm still sticking with gold because my xA is Indigo Ink. My only concern is, do the colors fade away quick? i checked on craiglist and people were trying to sell some faded 562 gold.

well lets face it the XXR is not an expensive wheel. It is a good value though. I would expect some fading if you use wrong cleaners...

I have the gold 513 wheels on my xB and haven't noticed any fading, but I do have the clear peeling on the polished lip of one wheel. They still look great considering how cheap they are. I bought mine from a seller on ebay that was the only seller of the gold/polished lip 513.
