I finally got my wheels today. The wheels are a 2 piece Donz Galante wheels 2008 collection. I ordered through my friend's store for 20x8.5 and 20x10.5 with a 4 inch lip in the rear. He said it will take 3 weeks for them to make the wheels black, correct lug pattern and offset. Then by the 3rd week he told me he hooked me up and instead of a 4 inch lip, he upgraded me with a 5 inch lip. Finally after about 4 1/2 weeks, I picked them up. I'm going to mount them tomorrow after work.

20 inch Donz Galante

Even the back of the wheels are chrome

looks sweet man, I just bought some rims like that black with polished lip 20's w/ tires and took the rears to get mounted today and the guys at the tire shop scratched both wheels needless to say, I have two brand news ones arriving in a few days paid by them. but it definately ruined that great feeling you get when you buy a new set of wheels.

I am always afraid of that.....not every tire shop can handle the 19" & 20" rims...and sometimes they just don't put the care in it. I rather pay more to have it done well.
