Pic Request: Mesh vs. XXR 527 wheels
Hey, whats going on guys ? I'm soon going to be looking at a new pair of wheels for my FC. I've been debating weather to go with mesh wheels to give it that old school look or to go with a pair of massive XXR 527 for an aggresive stance. Any specs, advice, pics, info, etc is greatly appreciated.

Alright thanks. Do you happen to have another picture illustrating the poke or lack there of? I was considering the same thing in gold for my car, but I was worried if it would be flush.
