Is that good or bad? I mean, on the car it would look different to just the rim by itself

In comparison to just the polish lip, I feel the polish lip would look better.
However, bronze lip would be original and I am taking a change.

Still unsure !

God, I cannot decide.

I really am unsure about the bronze lip though. Thoughts?

LOL Menty, in those Pshop pics my car looks ghetto Plasti-dipped LOL

FYI/BTW my wheels aren't "BKB" - they're a custom face finish and custom paint color, and my wheel lips aren't polished

Bronze looks cheaper, I'd stick to normal mgm finish. Looks better

Im sorry I destroyed your car. It was the best me and the IT guy could come up with.

Yes, Im planning on staying with the normal MGM finish.



On another note, I need to choose the colours of the rivets. At the moment Im swaying towards GOLD, as every Meister out there has the stock silver.

Im not sure which is best still
I don't know if you're picky about "side profile" like I am, but if you want even sidewall height on 19x9.5/19x10.5 you'll need to do a combo of 225/35F and 265/30R or 235/35F and 275/30R. With the 11" rear, bump up the rear tire width one step up. Anything smaller in the rear will make the rear wheel closer to the ground... Awhile back I was going to try 255 in the rear but it would have made the rear tire look thinner (distance from bottom of wheel lip to the ground) than the front, which to me is odd because it's a RWD car.

I think I just repeated myself there. Anyhow - again, not sure if this bothers you but it bugs me

MGM is so sick. The bronze lips look cheap, if your gonna dish out the cash get something flashy.
