Chicago roads suck but had these wheels for over a year now and no bends.. I think the step lip helps the strength because I've hit some potholes that made my butthole pucker and they've been fine.

That looks sick! Ordered the same exact rims except in bronze lip with black face. Offset is not as aggressive though.

The Work barrels are also forged so they are stronger than your standard wheel. Hopefully I will have the same luck with mine.

I love the look, but i still can't get over a 255 tire on a 10.5" rim.

Liquid_G your set up is sick...your on coilovers right? Why did you have the front tabs redone? Can't we just go without them? I'm still trying to decide if I want to take the jump to 20s or go as aggressive I can with 19s. The step lip is so enticing...

You're not gonna f'up your fender since you'd most likely hit the inner plastics which are somewhat durable and replaceable. If you did happen to sustain a little dent on the lip on your wheel it is typically repairable without any noticeable effect for around $100 - $150.

I think most people who put 20s on their cars are also lowered and so are much more likely to run in to trouble than you would be. Just be cautious as to where you drive.

LOL...we track our shop 370Z with 20" Advan RS-Ds and Yokohama Sport tires. Proper offset and suspension is key to doing this.

255-35 20" up front and 275-30 20" in the back. Probably not the most ideal setup, but it still gets the job done.

My old setup, 20x9.5+35 20x10.5+10 on 255/30/20 305/25/20. Stock height, camber, etc... I know it looks like a monster truck.

Guessing there may be a driver's side handle but the passenger seat has probably been removed so no need for a passenger side door handle assembly. Can't tell whether that 2nd picture shows a passenger seat or if it's just a perspective trick.

Edit: or yeah it could be a shop.
