Aggressive Wheels & Stretched Tires: Post 'Em Up! [[Some NSFW]]

I did a lot of research (over a years worth) bugging the likes of Royal, ToeKnee, Goblin, EuroDre, Status, Shane Robzone and basically the fitment I am after is ToeKnees setup (check pic below), he's running 10 front and 12's rear exact same offsets as me when calculating the .5" width difference. It took over a year of research and I had the best guys in the biz helpin me, I have all the confidence in the world in them so I'm feel I'm good to go.
and sorry guys I hastily wrote the wrong info, only the fronts are in negative offsets, the rears are in the low +
this is Toeknees fitment, mine should look very similar probably a bit more pokey. Will post pics when fitting them in mid august hopefully

Dre and Dranom, you guys got any close up pics of your wheels ? I'm trying to see where your valve stem caps are located, I'm pretty bummed out mine are stuck right on the step of the outer lips. I've seen some wheels have it on the inside barrel and that's where I assumed mine would be but uhh yea they're out there stickin out like a sore thumb.
I was told by DPE that all step lipped wheels have their valve stems located there, I don't remember seeing any on Shanes outer lips or Dre's, but I could be wrong.

Shane and Dre dont have DPE's... Kranson's and T1S from what I remember... they can chime in about the location of their valve stems..
My set of stepped DPE's have the valve stems located on the outer lip just like yours...

I had the black stems from DPE replaced with some chrome ones.. so they blend in and don't stand out as much. Also, watch out for those gorilla flush mounts.. I had those on my old set of wheels.. and the installer didn't know what the fck he was doing on the first one and scruffed up my wheel bad.. luckily it was in the inner barrel and wasnt noticeable from the outside .. oh yeah.. don't lose the extension tube for them either or you're really SOL...

Dranom yea I know you guys are running Works and Shane with Kransons, I meant as in comparison because you guys are also running step lip wheels, and I dont see any valve stems on your outer lips.
I guess Work does things differently, a better cleaner way.
thanks John, sweet wheels by the way, I just ordered these Gorilla flush valve stems I hope they fit and work, what wheels did you fit them on ? were they also step lip? cuz buddy at DPE told me they probably won't fit, but he wasn't 100% sure

yup no prob... i had them installed on my old set of DPE's.. .Variant R07's on the inside.. no step... but like i said... watch out with those flush mount stems.. I wouldn't want anyone to mess up your finish especially cause its on the outside.. good luck
