Thanks Lanson.  I am on a very strict budget.  I would at least like to get the Valencias and use my Michelins.  That would be best for the budget and I could sell my stock 20's.  I could always upgrade when in a better position.

I actually like strict budgets, because it makes the list smaller... lol

Let me work on some options.

LOL  Thanks!  I hope it's not a waste of your time.  But if I can't do it, maybe some of the other guys will jump on it.

here's some fun ones, just to be the "DA"..  >:D

See if you like any of these, these are all around $1200 a set.  Different color options too.





This one is actually made by TSW, for Lexus cars but it works for us.


Axis Penta, you choose the color pinstripe (white is an option)




I got more, just trying to see if something hits you as attractive for your wants.

These guys are on sale at Victoria, bought there before.  Right about $1000 for 4 right now, and these are multipiece.





Here's an XXR, with one cheap wheel, this one is $165.  Not a bad wheel at all though, many people have 'em.



Just ideas

Dave:
I saw that one as well I liked it lots but if I was changing from all chrome color wheel, i'd go with the black cartage with the mirrored lip. seems like with the black around the bottom, would work real well with out going all black which i personally don't like on a white car such as ours & lanson that victoria site is awesome, what a choice of wheels.

The TSW similator/configurator is not the most flattering.  all the wheels look small to me...

I like the middle wheel. U sure these are 1200 a set. Could swear they were much higher. I'm going to get some wheels soon. Having the hardest time deciding between 20s and 22s.

I still think an offset wheel with a mirror polished rim will look better Dave.

By middle, do you  mean the Foose ones?

$1220 actually!

Elementwheels.com is where johng got his Ace wheels, if I remember right.




BTW I would vote less lipped wheels and more full-face wheels (especially concave on the rear staggered), when it comes to 20's.  On 22's, yeah lips work out great.  But in 20", there is a lot of tire, then a lip, then the wheel face.  I wouldn't like my setup in 20", it would be too small.  21" would be awesome if tires weren't impossible to find and expensive when you find them.

If you did want to go with a staggered, lipped wheel, might I suggest the Vertini Milano, Zenetti Bellagio, Roderick RW2, or Stance ST-1.  Those will all properly show off the staggered setup by baring tons of lip in the back.

If more concave action is desired in the rear rather than lip, then wheels like the Axis Allies are better suited.  The pics I showed prior aren't properly displaying the concavity.

How about something a little less busy.  Much easier to keep clean inside and out.  No worries about staggering. And, I can use up my Michelins until it's time for 255's.
