      would consider getting a set but like others stated multi lug kills the look of that wheel

        hm i tend to agree with the previous guy who said the real CCW 'race' version wheels almost look multi lug anyway since they have the extra material drilled out for weight saving purposes. As such i think the multi lug look doesnt really detract that much.

        that said i always have a sense of pride in my wheels. i always spend a lot of them but it shows...they are strong, easy to clean, and look as good as week 1 after 2 years of daily driving. I will go for something legit :)

          Wish the 16s were wider but still pretty nice looking. I need to stop thinking about buying wheels

            I like them a lot. XXR's are good wheels. I personally have a set on my e36. Lightweight, durable and most of all, cheap. I have nothing against rep wheels. Sure, real ones are nice to have but the same goes for the extra 2 grand in my pocket. Let's face it, most of us upgrade wheels for the aesthetics. If the wheels make the car look good,doesn't add 30 more lbs, and will do it's job of rolling and not breaking, I don't see why not.

                  I'm not a huge fan of XXR, ESM, etc.

                  That being said, and I'm not sure if it's accurate, but did anyone else read the claimed weight???

                  13 lbs for a 15x8 wheel is not too shabby...very comparable to the TRM c1's and Kosei's.

                  I like the fact that they didn't do the "3 piece look". It gives the wheel just a tiny bit of originality. I bet if these weren't multi-lug and a name other than XXR was attached to them (fifteen52 for example) they could actually charge a good chunk of change for them.

                    What about the 532? I think they'd look pretty good on my 4 door...

                      Sorry, I just meant the real CCW swiss LOOK like multilug, not actually multilug. These wheels look great IMO, but I'm still saving up for the real thing. There's just something about having everything you want in a wheel custom made just for your car that is so tempting, and not something many people can offer.

                              Wow! Very impressed with these. I wonder if they clear the Massive street brakes.

                                I really wanted to avoid saying this because it may very well spark a shitstorm, but honestly I find knockoff CCW's repulsive. I love CCW's so much and the reps are just terrible in most cases. The only rep wheels I've ever seen and not disliked were 4x100 reps of newer 5x120 BMW alloys like the LTW's and M-System throwing stars.
