Took the advice of Peter. If I did it over again I would get the 4" lips. The centers used on the 543s shows more lip than the centers used on the 542/545/547. With my 542R's about 3.5 inchs of lips shows and with the new 543's about 3.25 shows. The big difference is that the black centers reflect in the lips and they just look smaller due to that.

Hey Gary...

For the sake of curiosity... try to weigh the wheels before you get them mounted.

26.5lbs does not sound bad, especialy for a 19x11 reverse lip wheel.
