good clean 5 spokers
i dont know about you guy, but these rims do it for me...big time. clean, dishes in the rear (10" ) for pretty descent price. i guess theyre edge racing, anyone have any experience/opinions on these guys?
i might have to pick up a set o' these bad boys

Those are some nice looking wheels. That site also has a lot of other good lookin wheels at really good prices, just limited sizes.

they look alright......... IMO i think a rim with a lip would look better on a z. the rims that you have in the pic will look great on an audi or bmw. but hey, if you like it go for it.

These bad boys look just fine on the Z with no lip!
BTW....those are only 18's....could pass for 19's easily because the spokes extend to the edge of the rim.

Every wheels doesn't have to have a lip. Those wheels look KICK *** on the Z. What's the big fascination with the deep lips anyway? I could take 'em or leave 'em. Deep lips makes the wheels look smaller. Makes a 19 look like an 18 and so on.

That concept applies to my old Hondas, when you had to run such small wheels, BUT when I have such big wheels already, No need to make them look "bigger"

im glad to see some people on the non-deep dish side of the force. usually people in here are so brainwashed into thinking they have a 996 they need a 4" lip.
now, do not mistake my intentions as "lip-bashing". those 5zigen's are REALLY tight imo, but not 4-5 grand tight
my concern for alot of non deep dish rims was pointed out in here, that being they could have a tendency to not show off the z's rear wheel drive ability to have fatty's in the rear with a good dish.
i think there is plenty of dish in these babies...

Well, these rims are nice. Now, I did buy some deep dish rims, but to each is own. Now I really, really like some 5 spokes from foose that had no lip, but ended up with the iforged. The foose are sooooooooooooo sweet to me, have to include a pic:

I'm thinking about getting 5-zigen Evo's...
so simple and clean looking.
