I'm not sure about the polished lip with those, but they do go well with the silver.

The specs that I know for sure are they are both size 18x8 and weigh in at 21 lbs each. Front lip is 2" and rear is 3 1/4". I don't have a clue what the offsets are. I just really liked the fact that you the staggered style while being able to have all 4 tires be the same size so you can still rotate em.

Only negative about them is they are on the heavy side. My TC is a automatic grocery getter so im not worried about a lil extra unsprung weight tradeoff for the asthetic gain.

You'd have to dismount / remount the tires to 'rotate' them front to back, if they are actually the same size. You can't rotate the 3 1/4" lip rims to the front and the 2" to the rear.

No, all 4 tires are the exact same size. They can be rotated from front to rear but you have to take the rubber off of the wheels to do it.

Yeah, all 4 tires are the same size but good luck clearing your rotors with a 3.25" lip. Please do it tomorrow and then come back and tell us what happened

^it clears the rotors just fine, the lip is just out more for the rear but both are still 18x8 with a staggered fitment. not sure what your really talking about clearing the rotors because he already is.

^Yea I'm not sure what he means by clearing the rotors because the wheels are on the car in the pictures? The spokes are the same distance from the rotors front and rear. There are diagrams on the axis website of how the maxis lip works.
