Rim Question...

I am interested in putting SL65 width rims on my e55, and I like how these are staggered and how the rears have that lip that is shown. The absolute most I would want would be 19"s. The 20's are just too much, in my opinion. Does anyone know what brand these are and what exactly would fit? Could you do a 2" lip or so on the rear, maybe something like below on my e55?

Anyone know or have any experience with these?

The wheels in the picture are 20" Bremma (Notice the larger lip on the front and rear) OEM SL65 wheels do not have the larger dish style lip. I have a new set in the 19" for sale ending in 2 hours on ebay:

If you want the SL65 wheels in 19" x-tian-230k has a set for sale in the classifieds:
