Lips look like Gawd awful and would belong on a crappy car like the 300. Concave is sexy and belong on sexy cars not ugly cars. Just my opinion no offense.

Looks are completely subjective. Do what you think looks best to you.

Brushed or satin polished lip. Powder coat finish spokes or vanes. Low profile rubber.
Lips always act as impressive trim and why they are so noticeable at rest or at speed.

I prefer ips because th wheels look more custom and have more pop. I could do a concave multipiece with lips but not the nonlip, full face concave....unless they were seriously deep.
My biggest problem with concave is they are the latest fad and I hate following the crowd.
Big and shiny rear lips are my thing and don't care what anyone else does.

Looks like the consensus is lip over non-lip concave.

It really depends on what car you're putting them on! I love big azz lips on most cars like ours and Beamers coupes but concave wheels look good on other rides like M Benz. Depends on the car and your taste or the lack of....Gary

I agree, it depends on the car, I have concave, but would choose a "step lip" over a normal lip, more of a thing where you just go with what you like
