this should be his last set. He wanted these wheels for awhile, plus they aren't used. SO they are a keeper.

Congrats on the newer wheels. However I'm not a fan of big (wheel) lips.

couple questions:
how much do they weigh?
Clear brembos? or possibly 14" BBK?

and

Aren't the rear tires both mounted the same way? Shouldn't one tire be mounted with the tread going the other way assuming the tires are directional?

Yes, good eye! 1 of the rear wheel was mounted in the wrong direction. I'm sure one of the guy at status was busy and forgot to get lunch when he mounted mine hehe. But it wasn't a big deal. I went to a local race shop and they remounted and balanced it for $15

They cleared my brembos perfectly and I know the fronts will clear stoptech BBK but the back won't. I'm perfectly happy with my OE Brembos so I won't be upgrading to BBK - nor do I have the money to anyway

Isn't Rick great! That dude still provides great customer service way after the initial transaction.
Yeah true that! I don't think I could have been happier. Rick & Status FTW!

NP man, we all love our cars for different reasons you know? The lip size is awesome but it was the offsets that really pushed me to get this set. It sits super flush and that was what I wanted.

The thing about the Meisters is the 19x10.5+24 and 19x11+29 both have huge 4.75" lip already and once you get to lips that size it won't be noticeable to gain a .5" of lip size unless an enthusiast is looking at it.

Nice Alvin!! Rick's waiting for me to put down an order for some gold Meister S1s, just trying to decide on how aggressive I want to go! My fenders are rolled to the MAX right now, and dropped on GF210s, did you have to run negative camber to 19x11 +17 wheels in the rear?

^ i think you'll need a good amount of negative camber depending on what tire size you run.

im running a 19x11 + 0 in the rear and have ~3 degrees camber.

Hey bro, thanks. I would go with the 19x11+17 if you're already rolled to the max. I think I can push my fenders out another 2-3mm if need be but I don't think it's necessary just yet. Right now I have 4-5mm of clearance between the wheel and the fender. When I compress the rear suspension the wheels travel pushes it up into the fender at a diagonal so it seems to be clearing with no rub. It also sits super flush to the fenders.

I'm also running 255 front and 285s rear with a -2.7" camber in the rear right now but I'm going to push that back to -2.0 (max of the OEM spec) when I get off my lazy butt and put on the camber kit lol If anything I'll jsut roll my fenders out a bit more.
