new Wheel Suggestions

i am in the market for some new wheels that offer a good amount of lip. leaning towards a nice step lip. face needs to clear bbk in the front. . i plan on running around 19x12 +15 and 19x10 +15

i looked into volk, work, iforge, ame, hre but nothing really standing out. was thinking about work vv-sx but they dont clear bbk well. or work MS1 but dont know how that will look on a gs.

any other wheel ideas VSC members may have will help lots.

thanks in advance.

Why won't Work's clear a BBK? You do know they have different disks to clear brakes right :) Come on Hsiang, get with the program!

Forgot to mention, post up your budget, for wheels and that might help others make suggestions for your car too.

the vv-sx has poor bbk clearance even with high-disk. losing lots of lip to clear bbk.

price range on rims: looking to spend around $3500. give or take $1000

You can always add a small spacer to clear if those are the wheels you really want.

wow, you plan on being quite the trendsetter with a wider wheel up front. i can't wait to see that one!

nah, i'm kidding. =)

still, those are pretty ambitious specs on the wheels you are looking for. should look good!

Weds makes some nice stuff. The lip may not be what your looking for though but take a look to make sure. Im personally a big fan of the Kranze LXZ.

What do you mean by profound?

Actually deep? I don't see how the DR5 is deeper than any other JDM wheel could be
