Re: full face

im not a huge fan on that style of wheel, I dont like seeing lip behind the face of the wheel but thats just me, I think there are better full face wheels out there.

Re: full face

I like it because it's just so simple.

it's kinda like when someone see's it and wonders " what is it about that car that looks so good and different" ?

Re: full face

totally respect that aspect of the wheel and I think that it would get that response.

Re: full face

i'm all about the full face, had option to run BBS LMs on my A4 but i went with all Abt (SP1s) which is a full-face wheel. on my Y33 Cima, i'm debating between full-face and lip again so we'll see, deep-dish and negative offset is the way to go!

are you gonna use the carlsson's for your cima ? it would look dope on a cima.

One great thing about mono-block full face wheels are that they look BIGGER than they are. My work euroline DH and the carlsson's are both the same size (19") but the carlsson's look ALOT bigger. I wasn't very impressed when I put my euroline DH on because I was so used to the carlssons.

if you don't want to go thru the trouble of calculating the proper fittment for deep dish-staggered wheels then the simple, powerful, under-stated monoblock wheel is the way to go. The monoblock wheel is just a more convenient way for achieving the same results, they both (deep dish -staggered vs monoblock) look just as powerful. I kinda regret swapping them out.
