Preview Pics : New Wheels for D2-AUTOSPORT Project GS
Hey Guys, things have been so hectic with customer vehicles and project vehicles, etc that the good ole GS has been on time out!! The car slept all winter in its cocoon, but its time to dust her off. New wheels of course are first up to bat!
I wanted to push the envelope while still ensuring the setup could be replicated for potential customers, without the need for mods (shaving, stretched tires etc). Also, the current "big-lip" craze is in, with the new trend being huge lips FRONT and REAR, spurred by cars like the BMW 745 / 645, G35 Coupe, and JDM VIP vehicles as well. Those cars are always used in advertisements, and then the Lexus guys get less lip action. My goal was to reverse this trend!
I worked closely with iFORGED on a custom fitment of the new Extreme Fit Forging to 2pc models, and here are the results:
iFORGED TRIAL
2pc - Rivets
20x8.5" (3.25" lip) - Front:
20x10" (4.25" lip) - Rear
Hi-Polished Finish
BBK Clearance - TBD
I'm also pleased to announce that the Extreme Fit Forging is availible on 2pc wheel models effective now, please SEND A EMAIL for a price quote.
Here are a few pics, until I'm able to get them mounted

The front will not clear BBK. The lip needed to clear BBK is between 2.5" -2.75" depending on which brake system, in the front.
