My only complaint with after market wheels is that the rear wheel lip is always so much more noticable than the front. I know it has to do with offset. Our factory wheels are not like that, why aftermarkets?

Actually, rear wheel drive performance vehicles usually have wider wheels in the rear for traction. Wider wheels usually mean more lip. This look signifies power and speed. Look at GT race cars, most have larger lips on the rears due to wider wheels. Most of the tuner kids and SUV afficianado's who like 26 inchers like to have the same size lips all around. Why aftermarkets? Because I like my cars to look different or more enhanced than other stock cars. I like the way the larger wheels fill out the wheel wells, and yes, I like the lip. By the way, the stock SRT wheels did have a wider lip on the rear and it was noticeable. My question would be, why not aftermarkets (if you find some that actually fit the car properly)?
