Wheel dilemma, what would you pay for big lip?

I am currently in the process of my build and I decided to change out my wheels. I had a custom three piece set made of 20x8.5's and 20x13's made for the rear. I have ran them for a total of about 200 miles.

I am also adding a porterbuilt notch and bags currently and have the axle out for a little refreshing. True trac, 373's in the mail. I have been advised to add c clip eliminators to handle the 468 and the lower ratio. Then I need axles.

So.... I'm thinking I need to narrow the axle and get some more lip, but I just bought the wheels. I'm thinking about having new barrels made but am not opposed to starting over as I don't want to toss 20"x 13" barrels in the trash either. Currently running 5" out and 8" in and going to 7" out and 6" in. I either sell the wheels as a whole, they are big money and 20x13 isn't a common size or scrap the barrels, or I could get crazy and get a set of 22"s for the rear and run a spacer for the big ones when I run them.

What would you do? How much is 2 more inches of lip worth?

Oh yea I have a set of 20" bonspeed malibu's I will be offing soon as soon as the notch is done to, even though this isn't the classifieds if interested
