New Rims for the L

I was looking around on the Supporting Vendors for new parts for my L. In Chickenears website I ran into this rims. And I just got to have em. Thinking 20s on front and 22s on back. Who makes em? Tim do you know?

This is how it looks now.

I really want the stock design on 22's on back and 20's on front (I know they make 20's) but I can't find anyone that makes em(the 22's). I

These are similar to stock design, and are some I considered when looking for wheels. You can get them in 20's and 22's with our bolt pattern and offset:

I tired to use the image viewer on window to zoom-in the picture to see if I could see the logo of the rim but I don't know why I could never find the rims. But I sure did find the girl everytime. She looks better if you zoom into her.....

4inch drop in front by 3inch drop control arms with 1 inch dropped springs.

4inch drop on back by shackles and hangers. The tannou cover is a lil heavy and drops it like an extra 1/2 inch.




UPDATE ON THE RIMS I WANTED:

They are like $950 each on 22's and like $900 on 20's
$ 950
950
900
+ 900
-------------------
3,700 just on rims plus like another $1200+ on tires

With that much money I rather get my bottom end built and get the racetested nos kit and NOS it to death (what can I say I am one of Rob_02's fans....).....

If your running 30 and maybe 35 series tires a 3 and 4 dropped would make it look great. The picture on top of the post is a truck with 22 and low profile tires.(the white one) I am pretty sure its a 3 and 4 drop on it

Actually, the rims are Maido MS5. The ST5 does not come in a 22 inch rim. I'm not going against what "the man" told you, I'm just giving facts.
Check it out on www.superbuytire.com.
If you view QuickBrick's gallery, he has the same rims.

Just some thoughts.
