Not to be a smart *** cause this is a real question.


Isn't concave the same as deep dish? Concave is when there is in indent right? Shouldnt it be called convex or just flat?

To answer your questions: I'm referencing the term "deep dish" in a slang manner. Many people use that term to describe wheels with big lips. Similar to my old setup


Think of concave as "caving in". Therefore you have a caved in look with the wheels at the center.

Think of convex as dome on a horizontal plane surface. This is where it bends outward not inward.

Hope this answers your questions.

I should get word in a few weeks at SPOCOM regarding sizing, prices, and where to purchase them. The matte black Lexus IS-F with the bronze wheels will be at the show, for those who can attend.

I'd rock em' but maybe in another finish and most definitely more aggressively offsetted.

But with 1pc wheels there's only so much that can be done offset wise.


Lookin' good OP. Lookin' good.
