yeah theyre ET12, i looked him up on here and the specs were listed in one of his posts, if theyre et12 and 16x9 and 16x10 does that mean they would have 3" front lips and 3.5" rear lips? or 3.5" and 4" lips?

It would depend on what face's he used. Why are you trying to build a car over the internet rather than in real life? You've been here long enough to know that searching and checking things for yourself is how we do it around here.

im trying to plan everything out before i spend thousands of dollars on wheels haha, arent there basically only two types of rs faces? the flat ones and the convex ones? i know there are a million different Et's and bolt patterns but looking at them from the front there are only 2 different styles correct? so as long as the ET and the width was the same the lips should be the same size, i would just ask the guy that owns(ed) the car but he hasnt been on here since early 2011 and i dont want to end up with a set of wheels that are either way to aggressive or wheels that i have to run spacers for them to sit flush and clear the struts
