I bought a set of matte black wheels as a back up set for a murdered out look. 19s are good because I can keep the ride height and stance the same but go with a larger series tire. This will be the wheels I travel out of state on.

I dunno, the lip looks alright but there is something unfinished about it. I can't put my finget on it. But it looks fine. I wouldn't worry about a thing. I'd leave the lip on but add some sideskirts.

Ehhhh not for me. The kit is clean but the wheels are just to chrome and to big. Just my thoughts...

We're not scared. We just don't think it looks right.

I had 2 sets of 22s and am about a million times happier with 20s and a lower stance, you cannot achieve a flush, aggressive stance with 22s and retain any type of functionality out of the car. Tire sizes are limited in a 22 so finding tires to stretch is almost impossible for the front. As a matter of fact i was dead set on trying to love my car with 22s the bottom line is everytime i see one now I think it looks dumb as hell. Anyone can throw big wheels on a car achieving a great stance takes skill!!!!
