Sneak Peak at Venacci wheels at VIPstatus

M3_LIN · 10-16-2009, 12:56 PM

Hey guys,

Just happened to stop by Vipstatus today and saw them putting on some springs and 20" Step Lip Venacci wheels on someone's AW E92!

I snapped some shots of it. Not sure if i was suppose to or not. (SHHHHHHHH) But i believe you can see the actual E92 at Formula Drift. I saw them putting on FALKEN stickers, so if i were to guess it would be in the falken booth.

I apologize for the pics. I took them with my camera phone.

What you guys think? I like the step lip.

not a fan of the chrome or highly polished finishes. May look better in a painted silver or black finish.

I think step lip wheels kinda remind me of the top of a soda can.. haha...

Cant really see it, looks cool

maaicher · 10-19-2009, 12:57 PM

Saw the wheel in person, amazign wheel you guys. Something you cant see in the pics is that the lip isnt smooth its got a very fine machined texture. not a smooth shiny finish, it is very unique. these wheels are also built by a top manufacturer in japan so you can be assured of the build quality

i dont like the wheels so much, but i love the step lips!

The step lip coupled with the 2 or 3-piece design makes the centers look really small. Not my fave.
