What do you guys think of this concept? The wheel will come in 20x9 and 20x10.5 and will have a 1.5" lip in the front and rear. Only difference is the rear will be really concaved.

I want to know if you guys like the concave look or if you prefer having a big lip in the rear.

F lips, give me depth of spoke! Make them nice and light and you'll be appealing to a whole new audience as well...

I would sell both my sets of wheels (Work VS-XX and DPE LS-5) for a VERY AGGRESSIVE set of concave wheels. Not CSL concave, or OE 20x9" RS4-style concave, I'm talking Neez Wheels concave. We can clear low offset 10's in the front, so there's also no reason that we can't have some concavity (albeit less) in the front also.







Despite the similarity I'm not a fan of the HRE P40 because I think the spokes are too chunky.

Oh yeah I also love the new 360 Forged concave design which has BOTH concave and lip by bending the spokes back into a low-pad face. Not trying to plug other wheel companies, just pointing out a style that I like, and would be awesome of other companies like Vossen also followed similar trend.

I'm another vote for concave. The big lips have been done and redone so very many times.

It depends on the car, too. I've been a fan of deep-dish wheels. Concave looks great on the newer BMWs and Mercs, though.

This would be a silly question ,but is it possible concave with the lip meaning more than 1.5
