Are 370z owners into concave wheels????? or would you rather have a big lip?
 
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. The front will be flat and 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.

Im not usually into concave wheels, but I DO like mesh wheels - I think that is a very good compromise between the two! Lets see some more if ya can.

I like the concave, do you know what they will wieght? Also will they be Forged? My forgestar F14's are concave and I love them.

Concave FTW.

Fusz, you get your F14's on yet? Hoping mine ship soon.

FuszNissan 08-03-2009 08:43 PM

:pics: or :gtfo2:

Sorry for slightly hijacking Vossen, but seeing the F14's will give you a rough idea of what your concave style would look like on the Z. I personally much prefer the concave look on this body style Z with the sharp lines. On the more rounded 350 I really liked the big lips, I guess cause it was more curvy like a woman :bowrofl:

Looking more closesly at the pictures, I think you should go for one or the other (or do 2 different faces and do both). If you are going to go concave, bring the outer edge of the wheel all the way to the face and give the front a tiny bity of concavity, and the rear really concave. If you are going to with the lip the front wheel looks good, and keep the face on the rear wheel the same and with the offset you'll have that big lip in the back.

I will up load some pics tomorrow. I don't think night shots will come out well.

Big lip looks best to me

g96818 08-03-2009 10:37 PM

it looks "busy" i like the simple 5 or 6 spoke types with only minor concave

Dee@Amplified 08-03-2009 10:55 PM

Low Offset, Super Concave, and Flushness.... Aww yeah....
