Ooooooooooooookk.

I guess everyone likes my current wheels much better than these new ones. Phew, lucky I asked for an opinion here before I made any real decision.

i never had such a one-sided opinion on CL where everyone agrees AGAINST me before, so you must be right hahahahah.

Honestly, the only reason I would consider these wheels is because I only had to pay so little to trade up to these and I have always always always been a fan of stepped lips (isn't the Scara also stepped?).

Yes the Scara's have a stepped lipped....why don't you get those, but then again Scaras do cost a pretty penny...oh and by the way, Scara is probably the only other wheel I'd upgrade to, other than an HRE 545 w/step lip, Fikse FM10(only if they came in 20"s) oh and I can't forget. I wouldn't mind some LM's but that's out of the question...my bro is gettin' those

Nahh, all the wheels you just mentioned are not JDM (with perhaps the exception of Scara), and I am a JDM freak....

...time to go look for another one...

Currently yes, but they are coming out with a reversed version.

IMO these spirit wheels will only look good on a MPV.

I say go for some 20" iFORGED 2pc with those crazy offsets!!

(Sorry couldn't resist )
i agree with derrick, if you do deep dish, i just don't wanna have the curved surface
