I wasn't tryin to be harsh lol, i was just saying the tucked/no lip was not for me and budget is not a huge factor considering i paid $1512 shipped for my wheels/tires mounted and balanced with lugs. I got them from VQmotoring.com

"No Harshness...accepted" lol...
I just put on "new" Wheels too but...
I still think that the 19s still are "sexy" for "stock" Factory Wheels!!

You went from OEM 19's to arospeeds? I wouldn't consider that an upgrade

I have a set of Ray's 19's for my spares and love them. If I wasn't so hooked on 20's they would be my DD wheels.

Actually I think the Arospeeds are pretty hot compared to the OEM rays.

The only thing that keeps YOU from thinking my wheels aren't an upgrade is who makes them, other than that they ARE an upgrade. And im only 17, sorry i cant afford $3000 wheels, plus i HATE the tucked/no lip look, which you acquire when buying the OEM 19's. And what was the point of dissing my wheels?

P.s. the wheels above are mine but in hyperblack and with a bigger lip on the front wheels.

I see you can dish out the hate but not take it, typical. I run high end forged wheels, and I don't diss on OEM wheels because the QUALITY is there. You say you hate the no lip look and chose a wheel with a relatively small lip? That makes no sense...

First off I didnt dish out any hate, smart a$$, second, i could care less about what you run. Sure the quality is important but im pretty sure the quality of my wheels is ok. You obviously cant read either because i told you, IM 17 I cant afford expensive wheels and If i had enough i would have gotten Volk GTS so i could get a HUGE lip, but i couldnt so i got these and the lip is big enough. ****...

someone's insecure about their purchase a little. This is what you posted thats not "hating"

Nope not insecure, just mad that A$$holes like you who post on here dissing my wheels for no reason. Also, please point out to me where i was hating on the OEM 19's in my first post, and not the parts where i say they are tucked and the lip is small, those are FACTS. Plus i NEVER said anything about my wheels being an upgrade or the build quality being better, you threw those little points in, i just think they look better than the stock 19's.
