Post pics of wide wheels with lip

Hello guys and gals,

I am in the process of purchasing wheels and tires for my 2011. I cannot decide on which brand but the wide wheels with lip look good on our cars. Any advise or pics is appreciated. Thanks

I am selling my 20 X9.5 Steeda Spyders with Firestone Firehawk tires. $1300. Car is rarely driven so they prob don't have 1K miles on them. They have a decent lip but not too extreme. They are the upgraded machined face version.

Fastduo,

I think I want to go with 18 or 19 inch wheels. Thanks for the offer though!

I've always thought these were pretty sweet.

Hytek,

Those are sweet! Especially the black. I am leaning towards 18 inch. I like the 19 inch wheels but tires are more expensive.

I almost went with the 20" chrome ones. It came down to those and the RTR's. Check out www.cruizinconceptswholesale.com for 18" staggered packages on those. They had the best deal when I was considering them.

Hytek,

$1196.00 for the black with tires is a great price. Thanks for the info! I wonder if these wheels sit flush with the fender on the rear. I do not like them to rub and with the lip on the wheels they might. What do you think?

I am going with these or the Steeda Spyders.

I like the look of the godspeed wheels better, but like the inch width difference on the Steedas.

No jokes about the extra inch!

Al,

Those look good! Not sure how the would look on a 2011. I truly like the style of a black wheel with polish lip. Many prefer no lip but I kind of like it.

Yep. Really wish they were full black.

I just got 20" Shelby CS56 in black with silver lip. They are staggered with 9's on front, 10's on back. Pretty decent lip. Here are pics.

They sell these in 18" as well.
