Ok, maybe we dont sell but I just hope and pray I never need to buy a new Gettin though.I dont think there is anyone near me who I would trust to fix a wheel/s if they were to ever get damaged.I would be SOL. I think with yours you could just get them rechromed?I guess if I damaged one of mine I could strip the clear and then have the wheel chromed....chrome Gettins on black,hmmmmm. Are the chrome finish Gettins clearcoated over the chrome?

I was just talking about this the other day, the best part about gettins is the 3pc construction, god forbid something happens, you can take the wheel apart, repair the damaged portion and then re-construct!
If its a lip that gets curbed, then due to the clearcoat, you would have to send all the lips out to be chromed.

well, based on the value, look/quality, i would suggest looking at these
www.work-wheels.co.jp
the Euroline series are very nice, esp the KH, or LS in 5spoke
www.rayswheels.co.jp
the AX series, esp the LK 5 spoke
though i must say NO wheels out there that carry ~the same price tag as the Gettins will have that massive 100-96 mm lips in the rear wheel

Well there goes my decision on which wheels I want, either L-sport M1 or Gettins. L-sport it is then.

Bluelex and D, yeah, I thought about the model 4, though something is telling me to get the M1's. Its really the DDC design that is attracting me to it. I will take a look over at all the model 4 pics and see how it appeals to me again.
One thing that is sorta of a "con" to the m1's is in the front wheel the lip is almost non existent
ps. Plus I have NO IDEA why l-sport made a 9.5" and 11" for the m4's and not 10's??

As far as the 11 goes, PM SoCalSC4 and see what he says about offset, he is going to be running a 20x11 soon
