howcome the front's aren't stepped?
20" front 21" rear... centers are all 20" so fronts not stepped..

otherwise step front would mean 19" centers and theyd look tiny in front and make backs look too big.. this way they look about even but back is 21"

21" in front would look dumb and you couldnt slam front.. when i had 22" fronts it was like 4x4 even slammed.

If it's really as you, and just about not "looking dumb" and keeping the centers evenly sized, then why not just go with the same size all around with reverse lips?

Nice fitments, but I don't like the idea of running a reverse lip in the front and a step lip in the rear. Looks retarded in that regard.

wow..I was actually wondering 2day what a 21 inch all blk step lip would look like...looks amazing! Im glad that I was able to be an inspiration to you as you have obviously chosen a great stand out set up for you G. Its good to see more members utilizing our cars and pushing wheel fitment levels to new limits. I know its not for everyone, but wow when a good set up and color combo come together, you can totally change the look of the car completely 360 degrees. and yes...and may be time to sell my wheels, but dam I HATE waiting forever...but wheel see if I have anything left up my sleeve. keep up the good work tommy z9....just take off the wing 8)

Thank you for the kind words. I can't wait to see what is your next setup is. I am sure it will be sick as hell. I promise I will not copy you this time. LOL.....Your current G is so sick that I can't help it but try to copy it.
