If your actually serious about this you need to DOUBLE CHECK and make sure they will fit.. That guy just wants to sell you anything so don't take his word for it, you might get screwed. Just a suggestion..

So your wheels will stick out 3 or 4 inches from flush with the fender. That's hot...not. What is it with people's obsession with "big lips"? I personally think more than a couple inches looks retarded, not to mention adds a redonkulous amount of unsprung weight.

I personally think wheels with HUGE lip are played out(used to have 4.6" lip on rear myself), not to mention it'll be heavy as fu*k.
Hey but if that's what makes you happy, by all means go for it. But you better make sure it'll clear your brakes. 6" lip is a bit too much IMO. There's a G35c with lip that big and it looked hideous.

dude you don't want your tires sticking out. If you lower the car your fenders will sit on the tires. Trust me this guy is going to A$$ Fukk you hard. the maximum lip is going to be 5 but thats going to be on an 11" wheel. Be careful. call asanti and ask them what would be largest but staying flush. rest is up to you. I don't think they are jealous, i think they just don't like lips. no biggie. Chrome is going to be very very heavy
