LOL just kidding. (those were just a set of 5" outer lips we zip tied to the stock wheel for fun and get WTF responses from people on facebook LOLOL)

but i have a new set of wheels on the way:



these are gonna be rebarreled to 21x10.5 non staggered, mid 30's offsets, with hankook 245/35/21s. not sure what i'm going to do for finish yet... any suggestions?

i had 22x10 +40 and had no issues, but i'm aiming for something a bit more aggressive this time

not sure on these offset moz dont have them stamped on the wheel being that they are 2 piece. but i know the 9's will fit its they 10.5 with 5+ inch lips in rear that i might have massage to get to fit. any suggestion??? however i did source some longer lug bolts which are almost impossible to find in 14x 1.5

yes, time does tend to change ones' perspective. being hood rich is still cool though... LOL
