I've been rolling on Maxxim Screech's, black with polished (nonexistent) lip and face, for the past 3 years or so and am wanting to switch it up now. I've decided that the XXR 513 is the wheel I want (seriously considered the Konig Rewind last time around), but can't decide on the color. I've found several pics of this wheel, just not on a blue box. The red with polished lip pops, but I'm thinking it might be too much. The black with polished lip is pretty similar to what I have already. The all black with red pinstripe looks awesome, but not sure about all black wheels... sorta would like them to stand out more. I'd go with 15x7 +15 with 195/60's until I need tires again, then probably go with 50 series.

I'm not one that cares to much about what other people think about what I do to the box, but I'd like some opinions. I have no intention in spending more on wheels than the price range these are in, so please no "save up and buy nicer wheels". Thanks guys.

Edit: Oh yeah, I'm lowered on Tein S-Tech's and Echo struts w/ 10mm hub spacer from Keoki in the rear.

 

I liked my silver 513's. i think they'd go good on any color.

 

I, for one, am happy with my black w/red stripe 513s on my BOP. It looks less weird than it sounds, and you'd be surprised how much they stand out.

 

gold 513's, tein s-techs, echo struts, bbzero camber:

 

I've toyed with the idea of the gold, too. I sure wish they made a bronze version - I guess I could get them powder coated, but that'd be more money. Those are 16's aren't they? Do you have any issues rubbing without camber?

 

yeah they are sixteens. without camber, i actaully didnt rub "to" bad, but i did rub, plus i rolled, err, pounded the hell out of my fenders, even with camber they rub at the ten o clock mark (if looking at the drivers side fender)

 

I'm seriously considering bagging the box later this summer, I think I might run into some rubbing issues because I don't want to run camber. Debating on waiting on wheels till that happens to see for myself what kind of clearance I'd have. Arghh - decisions, decisions.

 

Blue and gold is a good combo in my opinion.

 

I just ordered the gold with polished lip in 15x7 +15mm after much hemming and hawing. Figures, by the time I decide what I want ebay cashback is gone from bing. Is sgmotoring the only people that have the gold ones? I haven't seen them anywhere else.

I found the Axis OG-san's for $600, but ultimately my cheapassness won over and spent $200 less. $200 can do a lot of other stuff.

 

Nice. I bought my 513s from sgmotoring. The prices and service are great.

 

Here's a pic from my iPhone. Nasty rainy day, and a bird crapped on the side of my car. I'm really digging these, I'm glad I went with gold. Very happy with the stance too, pretty flush and no poke - exactly what I was aiming for. The shop that mounted the tires rolled the fenders too. The 195/60 is a bit meaty, but they've still got a lot of life left in them so they'll be sticking around for a while. Whenever it comes time to replace them, I'll probably go with a 195/50. I hope the DF210s settle soon, right now I'm about a half inch higher than I was with the S-Techs.


15x7 +15mm XXR 513s, 195/60-15 Falken Ziex 912s, DF210s (installed 4 days ago, unsettled), Echo KYB struts, 10mm hub spacer

 

Good choice! I considered, well, every color the 513s come in. Gold definitely works. Wise choice on the 15x7s all around; I have yet to get my rear fenders rolled to clear my 8s (it's that or camber, and I'm not the biggest fan of uneven tire wear).

 

That looks awesome. I like those wheels. Your fronts are nice and flush too.

I was considering some gold Drag wheels but never went with them.

 

Thanks guys. I'm already considering going ahead and getting new tires. The springs have started to settle some and I rubbed a couple of times coming home from work. I think I have my old wheels sold, so maybe they'd want the tires too.

 

What were your old wheels/tires?

I would probably rub with 195/60s but I'm going with those next time anyway.

I have Koni/DF210 (w/ 1/2 coil cut) for the same look in the front, but with amazing handling.

 

I had the black and silver Maxxim Screech. They were +38, so no issues at all with them.

I don't rub too bad, really. If I corner sharp and fast, like at an intersection. I probably will if I have passengers in the back, even with the rolled fenders.

 

Well, I had some 195/50-15 Nitto 450s put on today. They still rub. I hit a huge hole and it sliced the sidewall up something awesome, not even 50 miles on the damn things. The hub spacers are coming off. I hate to loose the stance, but I'm not dicking with rubbing anymore. Soon to be for sale: 10mm hub spacers made by keoki.

 

So 17x7 38offset would not rub at all if I were to have the money for something bigger?

Sorry about your tires. I'm very close too , but I have hub spacers and spacers, and it only rubs on dips with passengers.

 

The gold looks very good with the BOP. I think it might be a little better than bronze, but that's just me.

 

I wouldn't think there'd be any issues at all with a 7" wide wheel at 38+. That's what I had, just in 15".

The shop that did mounting rolled the fenders, but after looking at some pics on here I'm not sure they did that thorough of a job of it. The lip doesn't looked to be rolled up as flat as what a lot of you guys have and that edge is what hit the sidewall. One side just scuffed the rubber a little, the other sliced long and fairly deep cuts in it and I don't feel that it'd be safe to drive on it more than necessary to get it replaced.
