Wow I really like that AME wheel but they seem to be even more expensive than the wheels I'm looking at. I am really looking for a 17 inch wheel x8 +35 in front and x9 +42 in rear, and they don't seem to make any close offsets in those sizes(from what I could find but I'm sure I'm wrong). Thank you so much for the pictures, they were exactly what I was looking for to help judge. I went and talked to the powdercoater today and he said that since I want to keep the lip polished he probably can't do it because they dip the whole wheel to get the existing paint off and it might/will ruin the lip, so I would have to get it repolished which would be way more than I'm willing to spend. I'm going to send him some pictures and he will give me the final word, but If not I am going for the GTCs. Hey EL Paalo, do you know the weights of the gramlight and GTC offhand in 17X8 and 17X9?

Thanks a lot!
