Hello.
I have think about following wheel also.... but with different color setup.
I think this is a Mischa car? I like the face because it's not straight concave... it's a little rounder and it's not looking so heavy...

just have him rebarrel it for you. it looks like he rebarrels alot of wheels. check out his store also. some of the sickest and rare wheels he is selling. you would just need an adapter spacer for bolt pattern.
only thing i have figured out is that on my maya wheels, i would need a 2.5" spacer to have them sit correctly.

if you want some really cool wheels, the my350z site has tons of them used for sale. work, volk, ssr. ofcourse, adapter spacers needed, but it would be nice to save some of those awesome wheels from the "hella flush" look the Z community does to them!! retarded in my opinion. 235 on a 19x11, haha.

can't help but to like these. looks like in the available sizes, offsets, and bp, you could probably bolt them on with no spacers.

You gave me a lot of problems!!!
Now I know which wheels I'm gone order.
The one of the best thing is for me is that this lips are anodized lips... the chrome blow out here.
Just when it would be Christmas come again
Thank you.

that last link i think has the best of both. alot of class and a racer look. depends on your color combo for the finish though. they are a 2 piece wheel it looks like, so not sure which parts make up the 2 pieces. you may want to ask as you may not be able to replace just a barrel when (not if) you bend a lip. see if they feel they would hold up to the 4400lb sl.
i am loving all these wheels, but i still feel abit like the adv's i already have are going to match the style i am going for best. maybe i will run them at first, and just keep my eyes open for something else. all of the other wheels i posted up are killer though!

These lips are polished and then anodized, then clear coat for protection against environment.
They are tested at least 690 kg, so no problem with the weight of your car, unless you have SUV.
Lip size are based on offset. The maximum lip for
20x10 will be 134mm lip (20x10.0 -14mm offset A disk) or (20x10 -31mm offset R disk)
20x11.5 will be 157mm lip (20x11.5 -31mm A disk) or (20x11.5 -24mm offset O disk) and (20x11.5 -48mm R disk) - all 157mm lip size.
So the front lips is over 5" and at the rear over 6".
They can't made wider width regarding the rear wheel.
If I order this wheels at 19" they are not coming to be very heavy.
Delivery time 8-14 weeks... it's very long time.

Yes.... they also look very good.... This is a night mare.... can't decide
I'm still waiting info about those Rezax wheels.... I have asked the seller if they can change "bigger" lips and made them so it fit my SL600???
They already answer me they can do it... "Red drill" them...and change the lips but they have not answer me how much it would cost.
Yes... I must look al size in 19" I can get here so I can use right size of tires.
But I'm pretty sure it's going to be Work wheels.
Thank you.

Hello.
I got an answer from the Rezax II seller.
Can some body tell me what is "red drill"... Only to be sure.
Does it mean they change the bolt holes by drilling new ones?
I wonder how can they do that.... because 5*114,3 is bigger ring than 5*112.
They hole must be oval after that?
Then an another thing... those Rezax are 3D chrome face.... the chrome must be at the holes also so when and if they drill new holes the chrome is going to be damage at the holes???
Or does it mean they use the bolt adapter plate?
Those Rezax II lip size is also coming to be over 4" at the front and 6" at the rear... so it's coming to looking good.

They look awesome on a non-widebody and will look even crazier on your widebody.

i forgot i have a couple sets of 5x114 spacers that will total 2.5" that i could probably get my adv's bolted on the car with 2 bolts (good enough to just set it down on) and see how it looks before spending $400 on custom cut spacers.
crappy part is i bought the 345/25/20 rear tires a couple years ago, and they are now discontinued! they are toyo t1r's. so, i can't buy a matching front tire now!! i will have to get the new version, the t1 sport, which ofcourse, they don't make in a 345! so i will never have matching tires unless i switch manufacturers or they make a 345 in the t1 sport.

well, after toying with the spacers i had sitting around, i got them on and lucked out having nearly the perfect combo! the adv's are on! only 1.25" adapter spacer for front, and 2.25" on rear. my tires are cambered in, so i am giving extra clearance should i ever decide to stand the wheels back up to stock alignment.
i have been getting super close to making rash descisions over the last couple days looking at all the different wheels. with these on i can settle down abit and see if they grow on me. the pics had a hard time picking up the detail in the wheels due to the lighting and white body panels, but you can kind of get an idea. is has exactly the look i thought it would. but, it is hard to say if some of the other wheels might look better. atleast i can look at these for a little while now and decide if they are staying or going.
