i wanted to do something different, it seems like a majority of G owners get a wheel with the reverse (flat) lip with a conservative offset making the wheels look small and not wide enough, in person the Step lip is beautiful, the only thing i dont like is the five star, ive always been a mesh wheel person so Im still getting use to the 5 star look, and i guess its growing on me; the lip and the aggressive offset is the main reason i got the Scaras, there different and extremely rare to have in the states and no one really goes with the VIP look for these cars, if done right, the outcome can be amazing; in my next set of pics of the car, im sure some may change there mind about the stepped lip....
