Exclamation where can i get these rims

hey i am interested in buying some rims for my sc430, i think i have found the perfect wheel but they are not deep dish. these ones have a 1 inch lip. i am looking for at least a 3 inch lip do you guys know of any other wheels that look like this one but have a bigger lip?


thanks!

I would definitely say to stay away from those wheels on the SC....There are many better alternatives that will look much better. Good luck with your choice.

Can't we be helpful to each other in these threads? If you don't like it, offer some alternatives then. Just a thought.

If you have done your homework very well and you are still positive you love that style, then I'll say you should definately go for it.

Just PM a CL vendor like D2-AUTOSPORT here, I am sure they can find you a set.

BTW, which car inspires you to wheels of that style?
I think my neighbor has a set of similar wheels on his 04 Lincoln Navigator.

I did a quick photoshop pic for you, not the best quality tho.

Take it from Richard (talwang), he knows his wheels and does his homework. I wouldn't rock those wheels on my SC either. Look like ones you can get from OK Tire or something like that.

I would really try to stay away from wheels that have multi designs in one wheel. Try to stick to a more simple design so the wheels will flow with the vehicle and not be the only thing you see on the car.

I think these would suite what your looking for

hey talwang thanks for the kind words of support, yes i have been lookining for some time now and i have narrowed it down to a hand full. this will most definately be an informed decision not just an impulse buy.

BTW awesome job with the photoshop, man that is some awesome work, i really appreciate that first rate job, in fact if you have some time could you try photoshop these wheels? I would really be greatfull sir.

picts are attached but here are the url's just in case

Just being neutral to your wheel choice, but I do feel embarrassed to show you more of my crappy ps work again.

The web site you just posted has its own software called softwheels that allows you to view the similar wheels on your car.
I think it does a much better job than I.

Based on your preference I've perceived, I think you might like these.
