Default They aren't here yet, but the anticipation is killing me...20" Gettins w/ HUGE lip

Hey guys! I wanted to keep this to myself until they were on the car and I could show pictures, but I just can't do it! There has been plenty of talk recently about the availability and production of 20" Gettins, so I decided to be a pioneer of sorts and go for it! I am waiting anxiously for my 20" polished Gettins, and will have pictures of them ASAP; my funds reached Japan ~2 weeks ago so I should recieve the rims within the month. I decided to go all out and go with a lip of over 4" in the rear (fronts are high disk fitment for big breaks so the lip is around 1 1/2-2"), so we'll see how it looks:eek: I was just curious as to what you other guys who ordered rims from overseas did to pass the time...this sucks! Luckily I know that I am dealing with a very honest man in GS4Will so I have no worries, but the time seems to pass ever so slowly.

SWEEEET!!!!! Cant wait to see them! Hey, do some more mods to pass the time...heeheehee
By the way, what widths and offsets did you select???? A 20x10"+48 or +50 should allow you to use a 285mm tire with no rubbing. If you went +43 or lower, a 275mm tire might be the ticket to avoid rubbing. Either way, its gonna be SICK! If you havent seen this wheel in person yet, rest at ease, it will live up to any expectations you may have set......

Fingers are definately crossed...but I am willing to do a little sanding if need be. I just called Steve at Carson Toyota about ordering my Tein Flex coilovers, but they are backordered until December Ugh, I don't want to have to deal with the 4x4 look!
