I will do 20x8.5 for the fronts and 20x10 for the rears, not sure about the offset , but right after I get whichever rims, I am getting the big brake kit. I was thinking the 13" stoptech. I want the big brake upgrade for front AND back. I know thats overkill but both of these wheels have "open" design which shows a lot of brake, and the big brake upgrade for front and back will look incredible IMO.

A bodykit for me is still up in the air, because of my steep driveway . But I am definately definately getting the wheels and the big brake upgrade before spring rolls around.

Originally I had wedding plans, but since I broke up with her (long story), I can spend some $$$ on mods. Yeah yeah I know clublexus has poisoned my mind.

Go with the Zaubers. Big Lip, chrome, 20in Gettins will def give ur car the stunning look u want.

I saw many Zauber Gettins in person last Saturday at the S. Cal meet and two sets of Model 1 Evo.
Honestly, Gettins' lips ain't that impressive cuz the spokes curved out from the lip. In another hand, Model 1 Evo doesn't have massive lips but the design is real classy especially the DDC chrome.......WOW....

I like them both man, just keep in mind, if your doing a big brake kit, your gonna have to get a med to high disk setup in the front which is going to eat up your front lip!!!

Since they are both so nice, and also choice, I would probably get the Gettins, simply because the Sportlines probably cost a thousand bucks more!!

What 20s to you have now?

Right now I have the stock 17 chromes, I sold my 20's (used to be arelli). Damn going from 20's to 17's is a major change. Its like shaving my head bald, that kind of a dramatic difference .

I'm glad I am getting some feedback from people who saw both in real life. I want to make the decision JANUARY 1 2004. This way, enough people would have participated in the vote and I can get a majority of CL members to see which wheel they like better. Hey, we are going into winter and I can wait past the snow, the salt, the black ice etc...

DGOT20's, yeah you have a point. I will have to see how much do I lose in terms of wheel lips if I am getting the big brake upgrade. Hmmm BIG BRAKE KIT vs BIGGER LIPS.. HMMMMM.. Also, I am aware that the l-sport do cost a bit more, but to me money isn't a factor in terms of getting the wheel that I like most in which right now is up in the air between these two!

Nice pic bluelex, thanks for posting it up!! I pulled out a patch of my hair out because this indecision is driving crazy . My parents were over my house this morning, so I was like what the hell, I asked them which wheels they like better. Dad chose L-sportline, Mom chose Gettins
