read up my friend I clarified the difference in blacked out and smoked out and the whole ricey effect... and even provided the pic to show what i meant in blked out... I did say smoked out looks good.

That's it??? Those lips look HUGE! It looks more like a 3" front / 4.5" rear.... Those are iForged right? Regardless of what other people are saying, I think it looks tight!

Im actually only measuring the flat portion so if im supposed to be measuring to the bottom then i guess it would be 4". Whats the status on ur car when do u get ur wheels?? Post some pics!!
And im down in Irvine area all the time so we can for sure arrange something.

Yeah, I'm guessing the black is giving the illusion also...Wonder what mine are going to look like. I'll have 2.5" front and 4" lip rear with the same finish as you, except I'll have rivets (polished). That means I'll have monster lips.... Are you measuring to the bottom of the lip or just the flat portion?
