Default what kind of lip ya guys like???

no lip (e.g. kreuzer [shown], avs):


little lip (same color as spokes) (e.g. lm gt-4 [shown], te-37):


polished lip with raised (?) spokes (e.g. gt-c [shown], ssr professor):


phat polished lip with flat (?) spokes (e.g. andrew evo [shown], 57f-pro):


also explain your choice...

man, that is a HARD question. That is almost like saying "what do you prefer Blondes, brunnettes or reds??"

There are Hot girls in ANY color, I prefer blondes, BUT that isn't a rule

I like all the designs, EXCEPT the FAT lip ( i don't like 4" or larger).

I prefer the GTC out of all those choices

I'm all about the 57f-pro's... those wheels are so hot. But the GT-C's are growing on me.

I dont like huge lip, but lip is nice. I've seen some sweet BMW's with some amazing wheels.

RWD cars should definately have a lip of some type, especially in the rear. But, it also depends on the style of the rim. Some styles can get away with little to no lip (te47). For me, I'll most likely get a rim with atleast 3 inch lip in the rear. I like them "veilside andrews"

Also this...

I think I am one of the few who still like a deep "stepped lip" Most people seem to like the straight lips now, because the centers of a stepped lip wheel are usually a little smaller. Personally when your dealing with a 18 or 19" wheel, losing a little bit of size on the center section is a smalle price to pay for a sexier lip. Check out these simmons to see what I mean.

Yeah, I prefer stepped. HRE, Fikse & Kinesis still use a stepped lip to great effect.
