I like both, but few have concave which makes it more appealing IMO.

Am I the only person looking for CONVEXED wheels?? I want the tire to protrude laterally from the rest of the wheel. Something that would bend out slightly would look beautiful!

What? So you want to have curb rash on all your spokes? I've seen convex SPOKES on rims w/ lips, but you want the spoke pushing out past the tire?

You mean the spokes, not tires? If you wanted convexed. Interesting.

Have any pictures for reference?

Vossen, I would really like to see something very very very similar, if not the same, to the ConcaveMulti rim above. The computer drawing of the rear rim in the first page are very mildly concaved, is the plan to make it more concave?

If anyone can photoshop this on a G37 please post.

I'm a big supporter of the Concave look and have been expressing my opinions on these boards for quite a little while. It is truly unfortunately that we don't have more of the concave look going in this G37 community.

Yes, the spokes. I was looking for an example and I can't find one. I've seen them before but they are rare. I'm not talking anything extreme, but it is a unique look to have a wheel that goes from the hub, out a little bit, and finishes flush with the wheel. I'll keep looking. It's not extreme enough that you would curb out with it, although I suppose you could.

If you make them multi-piece with a deep concave and a deep lip I will definitely be contacting you for a set.

There is no way we can make a deeper concave.

The 3d renderings by 360 forged are very exaggerated and not real. It's really not possible to make a wheel that concave and have it fit all applications. If you notice they have a 2d profile of the wheel on the left had side of those images... the concave on the 2d profile seems A LOT more realistic.

I get what your saying vossen but i dont see a problem making the lip look bigger. Just extend the lip inwards more. It would also give the illusion that its more concave. But if i had to chose i would go with the design on the other post you made.
