lol....if people are serious about wanting to know the specs, just pm me. (in a non sarcastic tone)....after pulling the fenders, my meister i had on were sunken in...way in, looked like i was in a accident and i didnt repair something. 30mm spacer wasnt enough, it brought it out but didnt go as far as i was hoping...then came testing fitting other types of rims, widths up to 10.5-13. but anything over 11 was pretty overkill as far as the width. (im not saying theres anything wrong with a width over 11, just my opinion). after test fits, more measuring to hit a size that i could run without going crazy on the camber settings...realized that 3pc meisters couldnt go that aggressive (offset). so had to look into 2pc, because those could handle the lower offset, since they weld the face to the barrel, so the durability was there....
volks- didnt go as aggressive as i was hoping
traffic star- very conservative wheels (mainly for lexus crowd)
works-obviously this is what i chose
fabolous- rim i was looking at, no longer in production
auto coutre and wald- too VIPish, but nice none the less
so much time test fitting and measuring...and finally landed this one on point, and i had to wait 90 days for the stupid wheels to come in to see if my guess was correct...
if you would like to know the offsets, pm me

I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything, but you're a member. You could have easily listed the offsets when you posted the fact that they are 19x10 and 19x11. Why not avoid answering pm's and post what people are requesting? And for the record, I never asked what offset you're running.

19x8.5F, and 19x10R, with 35series,
what would be a nice stretch, nothing too mild, but nothing too wild.

225F with 255R?

I like stickers that rhyme.

Serious...

Not to mention, it's extremely insensitive and tasteless.


Where can I get one?

"they" are worried other people will copy since its a newer trend and a differnt way to mod onces car.

i can care less, i have -8, -6 offsets so there. most people who like it rarely go throgh with it, its a big deal to have super wide and crazy offsets, you have to change your driving stlye and deal with uber tire wear....
