Your not the only one. Is there a law that states factory rims can not have lips? I have never cared for factory rims on anything of mine. They look good but just imagine what a set of CCW's, I-forged, HRE's, or even SSR GT3's would look like. Still a sweet ride Grumpy.

They look good, better than any C5 factory rim, but just imagine what a set of CCW's, I-forged, HRE's, or even SSR GT3's would look like. Still a sweet ride Grumpy.
