I would rather have a true 4 inch lip with a flat face design as opposed to a 5 inch lip in which the spokes curve in. I think it looks a bit more tasteful. Thats just me though.
I'll have to disagree. Cheater lips IMO are something like a TSW Thruxton.

Honestly, 4" really isn't much.

Of wheels I've personally owned, my PIAA SuperRozzas with 9/10" widths had 3" lip front and 4.5" lip rear. My last set of Volk GT-S with 9.5/10.5" widths, my last set of SSR Professor SP1's in 10" widths, and my Junction Produce Scaras with 9.5/11" widths each have the same or more.

although i know what u mean..i prefer the significant difference in lips between the rear from the front..it makes ur rear wheel set-up look really aggressive and staggered
