I want the look of the car below (riveted 5 spoke...NO MESH!), but I'm not going be an all out baller and pay for iForged Trials (which I believe they are). The forged Lorenzo WL-19s below seem to be a good compromise. They have a 2yr warranty on the chrome finish if that means anything.
1) Are they decent quality to last me a few years?
2) If I go staggered (20x8.5 F and 20/9.5 R) will I have fender issues if & when this camber issue is taken care of and I'm on NF210's?
3) Front offset is +35mm and rear is either +35mm or +38mm. Which one?
4) Lastly, I don't want the lip to stick out like the bottom pic. Is it the tire width too small or wheel design?
Sorry for all the added questions. I just want this done right the 1st time.

I tried a set of Lorenzo's and took them off 2 days later. They just didn't seem to ride right. Maybe the fact the wheels were originally meant for a Benz and redrilled for Lexus had something to do with it but the professionals said that wasn't the problem. They couldn't determine what the problem was. Coincidently, there was another guy at the shop that day with Lorenzo's and he was getting his replaced. He called them "crap POS wheels" but I didn't ask him to expound.
Based on this, I guess I wouldn't recommend them but this is not enough information to make a final judgement.

Yeah, I know. The dealer I bought them from failed to tell me they were redrilling the wheels. I sent them back for a refund. Bought from www.Superbuytires.com
