i think this is your 5th thread asking for reccomendations. why not do like everyone has said and go to websites, enter your car, and pick one you like?

dude, ask a shop

i already recommend you buy a 3 piece wheel so you can change the lip to whatever size you like

if it was easy, everyone and their mother would have huge ****ing lips on their wheels

you gotta roll your fenders, stretch your tires, and above all else, know what you're measuring (i sure as hell wouldn't know how to tell you to do it) this is a car audio forum

well i never got a defenate answer. what im asking in this thread is if theres a way to determin a lip size. i looked at all kinds of wheels, including 2 and 3 piece wheels. but still, i just dont trust the pics. what may look deep may be shallow for a fwd wheel. thats what happened when i bought my set of driv kick wheels. they looked deep but when they came in they wasnt.

if its for a FWD, the Axis SeVeN MOD is pretty much your only choice... i think it has a 2" or so lip...
