<-- you know what I have already. But how can you be over Work already? That company is no fad. But check into AME's. They have a nice line as well. Besides, I figured out how to go wider. I'm talkin 5 inches or more on the back!! I already have 4 inches so five sounds good to me. But it's not like that comes with a hefty price. My goal would be to have at least 9's and 10's at some point. Anyway I still haven't seen any other cars with "real" lip yet. Don't think we're lookin for 2 inches and spacers on this thread.

thats what i have and i dont have a problem with it. she never said that all the wheels had to have 4" of lip on them and had to be crazy offsets. i went out and measure and my lip is just about at 3".


if you can notice that i have spacers on my wheels from an internet picture, more power to you, but all i know is if I didnt tell people i had them, none would know it. its all personal preference. i feel camber should be reserved for REAL VIP rides, but that doesnt happen either.

NOPE I dont care what size lip.

This is why:






This is basically the style everyone is trying to sell me! A style where the wheel is flush with the edge.

NO Im not over the Work wheels by any means!!! Im just not sure about buying them or receiving them with no help or in person contact so I can make sure they are what I want. I've seen some that are "even" looking and I dont want that. And also JC has been HELPFUL with me on the purchase. Its the the Axis Decades, just to test this one place I showed them to them and they said NO WAY on a Scion xB with those wheels! Ummm wrong!!! Because I know bc I saw Nilos xB when he first put them on HELLO!!! lol



So if the fitment is supposed to be a 7.5 how do I fit an 8??? Im so confused!! I dont know anyone to roll my fenders and put on spacers and or shims and those things!

I LOVE the staggered look but these ppl are telling me no and then say if I do it Im looking at a lot of money to make it work!

THANKS EVERYONE!!! You've been MOST helpful!!!


{The Works just make me nervous bc I dont know how Id like them on a TCM! I wanted them when I was considering getting a Black Box!} Anyone have a pic of them on TCM?? The silver ones that is.

You can do staggered ofsets. We talked about it. Did you check out Works new wheels yet? How about the Euroline FE, VD or SL? those wheels all look sharp with a low offset.
THey are not even on the US Work website yet. Don't even bother with companies that don't carry JDM wheels. To get an idea, call www.TougeFactory.com. Dave will get you the sizes you need. These guys are total offset ******. You won't be disappointed.

I know we talked about it! lol

Im just still confused esp when Im being told in person that I can't do it or itd take a lot!

I guess I'll just get my wheels delivered and hope they are just ready to slap on but yet still the way I keep invisioning them!

I just really like the style and look of lip and I want to make sure I can acheive that without doing too much to my car. I might find myself traveling to have this done right!

Thanks for the pics Im loving them!! Can't wait to show the guys today!! And report back what they have to say NOW!!
