    What was the issue with a wheel with a lip and your current bag setup? As far as wheels I was thinking along these lines:

    It was mainly when I was living in Ft. Lauderdale. When I would go to downtown or to South Beach in Miami I would park at a bussiness for free and since it was private property you wouldn't get a ticket, but if you got caught then whoever would call a tow truck to get your car out.

    Those are actually polished aluminum not chrome, but I hear what your sayin. You could always color-match the lips (silver) and paint the centers a different color like black, gunmetal, blue, etc. That would look really good too...

    I agree but they where heavy wheels also,this time I went with something a lil lighter being that I am putting a turbo on it in the near future.

    No Im not saying do that with your old wheels, it wouldnt look right on those. Save up for some wheels like Reelax and I posted, those are multi-piece wheels which in some cases they are actually lightweight wheels. If you sold both sets if wheels you prob could afford a set of multi-piece wheels.
    One of the main things is the wheels you have dont look right with the negative camber that you get when you lay your G down.

    Really liking your set up with the bags.
    Where I'm from the roads are not so good and dropping my car will def cause problems for me. Oh how I wish I could do that.
