Default Pic Request-Y2K C5 Deep Dish

Looking for the machined face, black inside spoke and the argent finish. I don't think I've seen those yet.

Thank you!

Can someone from OE confirm the 19" C5 DD wheels and the sizing of the lips on them?

They look great, now the only thing I would do to them is polish the lips and they would be MINT.

I read Scott from OE was saying that 19's are in the works, now I just need someone to confirm this+the lip sizing.

I'm pretty sure they're not making a 19" wheel for the fronts, just a 19x10 for the rears which is half inch narrower than the 18" rears, so the lip might be narrower. The C6 dd rims which are 19x10 have a smaller lip and don't fill out the wheel well as much, so I'm guessing the C5 dd's would be the same.

this would just suck, it would be great to see some 19's with a nice deep lip

Is it me or are the spokes fatter then the factory Y2K rims. It looks like as the factory ones get thinner as they go closer to the top of the rim. Has anyone else noticed that, or are my eyes playing tricks onme.
