I never said that it was 4 inches of lip. i said those lips are small. Stepped lips make the wheel look even smaller.

I think it should be at least 4 inches of lip. My wheels have 3.75 in the rear and his wheels are another inch wider.

Offsets are pretty low. I'm sure the fronts needed to be high disk for his TT brakes. I'm pretty excited to see these wheels.

So I was right. That's what I thought! The wheel looks to be around 11 inches wheel in total. It's a three piece wheel; the seperation towards the lateral anterior (front) of barrel is where the lip starts and face attaches. The seperation/front anterior side (lip looks like approximately .4 of the 11 inches). That's why I said it had around a 4 inch lip. No disrespect, guys!

GSFonzy, it looks great!

no way dude you're still wrong. that stepped lip isnt 4 inches, its like three 1.34 inch lips melted together and then bolted onto that wheel.
