Thanks for the information. I am converting my car over from the "Pro Street" look to the "Pro Touring" look so I am trying to elimante the "deep" dish look on back that I already had. I had 15"x14" wheels on the car with a 5-1/2" backspacing (with a 46" housing end-to-housing end Ford 9" in the car). That gave me an outside/dish depth of roughly 8-1/2". In my opinion, that was too wide to give the car the proper look...
Your roughly 2.5" outside lip on your front wheels looks about what I am shooting for on the front of the car. I can adjust the front track with the control arm length on the front of my car to get to that lip. I am using 18" factory ZR-1 wheels on my car for my race tires and that is about what the corvette lip is on their 18"x10-1/2" wheels. To compliment this offset I planned on about 1-2" more outside lip on the rear wheels to flow with the fronts.
I was planning on a 100% matte black wheel on my car but after seeing the matte black lips with the gun metal centers on your wheels has got me thinking...
By the way, I am going with the ZX3R racing wheels on my car so the wheels do look just a slight bit different.
Thanks again for your help!
