Here’s a pic of a mystery wheel from SEMA a friend sent me. Any guesses as to what car these go to?



That has to be the biggest lip I’ve ever seen…

i wouldn't guess what car it's on, coz' there are a few cars you can put these wheels on. seriously having 6" lip is not common, but i wouldn't say it's rare these days.

and personally i don't think they look that nice anyway

How about this one.





I'm sure I can fit a bill on the lips also sideways.

I better give it a try.

That lip is insane, yeah bigger than Angelina Jolie's

Sorry if I sound like a sour apple here, but I don't understand the obsession with insane humongous rear lip. Looks like drag racing cars with slicks

It's almost like stuffing 22's into a GS, or sticking 28s on SUVs.

Anyways, carry on, thanks for my mini um-ah-huh???

I hear you, I'm all for big lips as well, but in proportion to the vehicle. Like the mega rear lip on a widebody Porsche or Lambo Murci is one thing, but a 6inch lip on a widebody Kia Sephia just doesnt have the same appeal.

4" lip looks insane on most cars, IMO 5" is cool on some, after that, unless its a exotic, its more of of a novelty, IMO. Nothing wrong at all, but just more of a novelty as I said
