Offsets as follows +39 front +44 Rear

Rubber will go on when I can find a good deal!. Nothin but lousy, crummy, wet, ugly, cold winter tires in stock now. I'm praying for an early spring!

Very nice wheels. I was thinking of getting myself a set, but decided against it due to the only thing I dislike.... the center cap area. I just don't like the look of a seperate line on the inside.

That is all besides the point though.. awesome wheels!

I hear what your sayin but the centre cap didn't even come into the equation when I saw these. What I really liked other than the style of course was that the rim looks a size bigger (ie 19") than it actually is. Some rims IMO look smaller due to their construction and style.

Those are really nice wheels. Where did you get them? How much if you don't mind me asking? What province and city are you from?

Sweet rims, I love rims with a nice polished lip. I also like the staggered lip width f vs r. I haven't owned any Racing Hart rims, but I hear they are good quality.

Do those have replaceable lips? I understand OZ makes one that does, possibly other manufacturer's as well. I like that idea with all of the streeatside parking I have to do. Not to mention there are no good rim repair shops in my area.
