I'm not gonna try it now, maybe later, but my guess is it'll look GREAT! I saw the thread for those rims, they are SO nice, but the stock MP3 rims are good enough for me for a long while, I'd rather do performance stuff first.
Its hard to tell with photoshop..... but I think the new rims will look better than the G-Games. Though the brand is less known in the aftermarket world..... the polished lip is larger, they are the right offset (no rubbing), and the 'bullets' give the rims a more aggresive look I think.
They cost just under 1250 shipped (the price has come down slightly).
I forget how much they weigh but I can pick them up with my pinky... they are at least the lightest I have owned.
I wish they were the two piece 18"... but what can you do? :shrug:
There was a set of those on ebay just the ther day for $400! 19x8 +42 though.
Those wheels you were asking about look great though. I'd have to have those in 18's if I were to get them however. That lip is waaaay to big for a 17. Personal preference... I like wheels to look big.
Well if you are serious about getting mine just shoot a PM. I will put up a FS thread soon. Might just run the winters until Richie gets the new rims in.
The lip is not huge.... its a great illusion. The lip bevels in halfway down (probably for strength since the offest is larger), but it appears to go straight back looking straight on. Its a great design for a large offset if you ask me. I think they did a great job.
You can see the small lip + beveled region here. The $20 is sitting at the base of that bevel.
