one piece with lip looks cheap imo. if you are going to lip, get 2 or 3 piece wheels.

I disagree, it completely depends on the wheel's design.

It depend on the wheels, there are plenty of 1 piece wheels that look great with a lip IMO.

That being said I am not a huge fan of those wheels but if you like them and they will fit go for it

I had 5 inch lips on my old rims . You gonna need high offsets and I had normal fender mods. Just heat gunned fenders mostly. And if you like them go for em bro. I haven't seen a set of rims that every one is gonna like

With that price you can get LEGIT forged wheels. SSR/Works/etc.

Fronts (20x9): 3"

Rears (20x10): 5"

That seems iffy to me already. Your just increasing the width by 1". 3" + 1" = 5"?
