Nice wheels [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img] Do they have any rubbing issue?

I am planning to sell my HREs and get either RH J5, Volk Progressive Spoke, or DPE R05VS [img]/w3timages/icons/wink.gif[/img]

Re: **J5 Pro Silver**

Proud to own a Ivory Pearl! I decided to get silver cause its a proven fact that the brighter or ligher the color is, the bigger it looks! So my wheels do look 19" in real life. If I went with Gunmetal or SBC finish, my wheels would look a bit smaller. Plus, Silver just compliments the color of my car better.

No rubbing at all. A bit more road noise coming from the tires though, and a lil bit bumpy due to the low profile. Can't complain, cuz I do LOVE EM SOOOO MUCH!!!

Re: **J5 Pro Silver**

groovy did you have to get hub centric rings (i think thats what its called)? if you dont have them, does your car shake at high speeds?

Re: **J5 Pro Silver**

Hubcentric? Not sure bout that. Have yet to take my car past 100kms so I don't feel any shaking. I drive slow

The front lip is about 3 inches and 5 inches. FAT LIP I tell ya! I mesure the lip from the most inner part of the center piece. Not from the edge of the spokes. That way I can measure the TRUE lip size.

Groovy4,

How do you clean your wheels in between the spokes and lip? I'm concerned about the gap in between the spokes and lip.( discoloration ) Other than that those are nice wheels!!!

Re: **J5 Pro Silver**

With Diamond graphite, is a darker rim better or silver rim. I'm not going for the racey look.

Personally, I think a darker rim looks better. I think silver/chrome is just too bright for the car. Graphite compliments the car nicely.
