I agree interesting... looks like a lot of the wheels I saw at SEMA... I think the style needs to showcase the lip more... you loose the lip with this face type.

Yes you are right. It's the 5.5 inches of concavity that takes away from the 6.5 inches of lip. It is something I will have to come to terms with...

Comes with the territory of being one of the first 370z's with REAL concavity and huge lips... Second one coming next week...

Well if I may, I think he was just saying that the wheels are concave, so its a different look. No offense to Buillitt, just its kind of common knowledge that 3 piece wheels with concavity, tend to show a lip, but in a different way.

Its a crazy looking wheel, just for someone that saw wheels at Sema, should know automatically that is a 3 Piece Concave wheel, and should understand that.
