They are 19x8 and 19x9 with +38 offset. They are chrome, yes. The car is presently on Eibach springs with stock shocks. I am currently saving for some coilovers. The TTE front lip should come soon!

Really? I can't find any good spots at all (besides OU). As you can see from the pictures, the background sucks!

It's slowly getting to how I want it (purchased in March).

Here is another good picture. Looks like the first one, but from a slightly different angle:


The lips are: 8 inch rim w/ +38 = 50mm rim depth, roughly 2in lip
9 inch rim w/ +38 = 62mm rim depth, roughly 2.5in lip

Thanks a lot!

I usually shoot with a Canon 20D, primarily with my Canon 28-80mm L lense.

These pictures of the 20D was taken with the 300D (used yesterday):



Yesterday was a spur of the moment shoot. At that time, I had my cheap 300D and 50mm f1.8 lense (in the car).

I am saving up for the 40D (Christmas time)!

nice. i thought the lip sizes were very close. mine are definitely much more conservative but with more difference in lip size between front/rear.

Hey, dude. Thanks for the comment. The wheels are 19's. The car is sooo far from flawless. I need a repaint on the front bumper from rock chips. Also, someone shot my car with a pellet gun a few weeks ago. I have patched it up; but it isn't perfect. I might fix it when I get the bumper repainted. I might just paint it in my garage.
