RJ Devotion Type III (19's & 20"s) on 2 tone TL.

First of all, sorry for the camera phone pics, they were quick shots from the customer.

So this is what they are exactly:
-19" x 8.5" 40mnm offset up front with BBK clearanc e and a 1.5" lip.
-20" x 8.5" 40mm offset out back with a 3.25" deep lip.

The finish on the 3 piece wheels is Liquid Graphite with a diamond cut machined face and a chrome lip.

This to me is the optimal setup, same width and offset front to rear, but the deep ass lip in the back with brembo clearance in the front. Also, the 40mm offset allows for tire tucking without rolling fenders, even with 245 tires.

Great looking wheels and lowering. I love the 20's in the rear!! That is pretty good you were able to get more than 3inch lip in the rear for a x8.5 40mm rim. Nice work!!!

Ya know, I don't think we'll be making that setup, I'll have to see what the 09 TL specs will be, because thats going to be the next vehicle we will cater to. Cost alot to make a separate face wheel, and at this point, decisions based on budget is crucial.

It's a 3-piece wheel in 19" costing $690 and in 20" costing $790, very fair pricing, and no need for customizing, they are built specifically for the TL. If someone wants a custom offset or a bigger lip for a widebody, etc, we can have the lip's replaced with different pieces. THe finishes are all customizable, but for an additional cost. Hope that answer's your question, not sure what you were trying to imply.

Hey, if anybody is in the Atlanta area and is good with a camera, I was hoping they could at least shoot the car with a decent camera and a good eye for photography. Call me or email me for details, there could be something in return.

Actually, it does look like it's staggered, but really the main reason for the deeper lip in the back is the Caliper clearance for the Brembos in the front. The front can opnly get away with a small lip because of this, but since the back has alot more clearance, why not make the lip deeper. The wheels are still 8.5" front to back, both with the 40mm offset. The reason for the 19" front and the 20" rear, is also visual, it just looks so much more aggressive, kinda like the plymouth prowler or Acura NSX.

Oh, btw, we are still looking for a person to shoot the car with HD or very hi quality, hi res in VIRGINIA, I am so dumb, I forgot the car wasn't in ATL. Anyway, anybody in this area can call me direct and we can set it up. Discounts available for those willing to help out.
