g games 77w (1 or 2 piece wheel?)

Hey i'm looking into getting some rays g-games 77 wolf's. I'm noticing they come in one or two piece set-ups and not sure what this means? I want the gunmetal ones with the polished lip. Where can I find them? Thnaks.

Edit....i found where to find them! But still not sure of the one or two piece wheel.

2 piece!!! looks WAY better!!

check out the site. YOu can tell the difference?? One piece, the lip and the center merges and is the same. 2 piece, the middle and lip is seperate, giving it a more detail and distinct look~

The 235-40-18 on 18x7.5 rims are fine. Many of the people w/ Ronjon rims have been running 235s on 18x7.5 rims for a long time w/o any issues.

Is there any real benefit to buying the more expensive 2 piece wheel?? Can you really tell the difference by looking at the rim?

well normal two piece wheels are exactly that two pieces. the outer rim and the face are seperate pieces that are held together by bolts. this way if you hit a pot hole and bend the lip or something you only have to replace the outer part and not the whole wheel which then means its cheaper to repair.

yes, they have slightly different styling. if you get the 18", there's not much difference, but if you want 19", you have to get the 2-piece
