    I love VIP wheels, I'd buy every set I saw if I could afford it. I'm trying to swing more VIP but just haven't found a wheel worth making the switch to. But, I don't want to "downgrade" to the cheapest "official wheel" out there like the work euroline dh to go VIP. I've started searching around for a "cheap" set of faces or wheels with poor sizing in need of a rebuild and refinish to start with if I don't keep my SSR's.

    I don't have a set of spares or anything to drive on so I think it'll be easier for my to pick up another set, and rebuild one or the others to keep me on the road.

    I know photoshop isn't always great tell, but it's a decent decider.

    I've got probably hundred photoshop of wheels at various stages of my build, i've always just been curious about wheels.

    Well, let's see it then.

    I always love Crown Jewels / Vienna Kreiss on anything big and square (can you tell I'm biased? ), but that's a pretty big departure from the look you've got going on.

    EDIT: One last thought - when I photoshopped my Crown Jewels on, they looked rancid, but I went and bought them anyway. Lo and behold, I love how they look. You can only trust a photoshop job so far, you know?

    I'll admit, the photoshop of those Bradas isn't working for me either, and that's in spite of the fact it's a wheel design that I love. I wonder what a set of Kranze Bazreias would look like on there.
    Bazeria's are my all time favorite wheel, like ever, and I mean EVER. And i.. I just almost cried when I photoshopped it they looked so bad

    Slammed VW's on Jeep wheels always kind of agreed with me… Meh..
    I've never seen a VW on Jeep wheels until I just googled it.. I can dig it.

    But, I'm attempting to build a show(ish) car so I don't think OEM jeep wheels will be my best choice unless I have them milled and drilled for 3 piece love.

    I'll have to look into vskf's. I've never really been a huge fan of them and tinker with photoshop. This build seems to like things I don't though. Haha

    I wasn't pleased with the company that did my retrofit from the start, left me sour from the beginning but they already had the money and the lights so I was pretty much SOL. I'm considering ripping them out and doing a Q45 retrofit just for VIP intentions, or something swanky like that.

    Not sure why I stopped getting email notifications for this? Haha. Oh my, I don't know if I could handle 20's. How about I just go more low and get big lips for the ssrs? Fitment is a huge concern, so I'll try not to disappoint.

    I've officially placed the order for my custom camber arms, and toe links and should be here within the next 2 weeks. Rear will be hitting 10* of camber with them! But, in order to do so I'll have to rebuild the wheels.. onward!

    The following picture may tailor to some people, but I think it looks gross. But, as requested.
    ********* THIS IS A PHOTOSHOP ********************************


    Also, my retrofit took a shit. All the led rings are starting to burn out, turn signals are burnt out, and I'm over here like.... WUT.

    I need ideas, like now.

    Good work man. I think those Brada would look awesome i think that was the car is missing some lip or some concave faces .

    Btw have you thought about putting stock headlights back? I think those would look better but that's just me though hah.
