I have 540R's 18"/19". Great wheel, but $$$$!

Look into iFORGED Seneka's same look less $$$$, and you get a 3" lip
on the rear.
19"/20' iFORGED Seneka's

Thanks for the reply and pics. Beautiful car!
Whats the difference between the 540 & 540R?

I have a Black coupe and I keep dreaming about the polished 540's....

The R series have a "dish" look (lip) and also have hidden valve stems. The R series require you to band/epoxy your wheel sensors if you want to keep that function.
