wheels with lip always look 1" smaller than they really are (cause they don't go all the way to the outer rim).

U mean wheels with a step lip are smaller because in actuality the face is actually 1" inch smaller. I vote for the 5 spoke wheels, those "work varianza's" don't really look like varianza's from that picture.

urh no i dont. step looks even smaller than lipped,

the hres on my m3 with lip looks like 18s. I used to have bbs lms with stepped lip, and that looks even smaller.



the only wheels that look like their actual size are the wheels that go all the way to the outer rim. like

My point was that with a step lip wheel, the barrells are gonna be 19" or w.e but the face is smaller.
