Well i got the wheels today, and i guess i answered my own question now.
The rear lip, from where spokes start, is 4.75".
Here are some pics courtesy of
Intense Motorsport's who i ordered my wheels from.
Front
Rear
Now just gotta get a little more money to pay for tires. Anyone looking for stock bumpers/skirts, stock wheels, or esprit skirts?
