Lip or Concave?

MenTul · 08-02-2010, 09:02 PM

Considering new wheels and needing to decide between concave VMR 713 and Linea Corse Z2S.

Got me thinking about which is more popular, Concave or Lip?

Also will BMW center caps fit?

VMR V713 - Concave

Linea Corse Z2S - Lip

nice avatar. whend you get it hah? and v713's all the way

BOSSBMW · 08-02-2010, 09:16 PM

The lip on that bottom wheel is HOOOOTT!!

I'm a fan of concave, though...

lips look better when your wheels are staggered

Concave.

remmib · 08-03-2010, 09:38 AM

I like wheel with lips, but out of those two, I say go with the v713.

jfisher160 · 08-03-2010, 09:47 AM

Go with the VMR's 713's. I have the 701's which are similar and love them on my car. So go for the 713's.

Craig@SupremePower · 08-03-2010, 11:44 AM

V713..

Concave is the new "in" thing.....Just look at all the wheels that are on display at the local shows.

I personally vote for concavity!

Wake27 · 08-03-2010, 02:23 PM

Concave. And BMW center caps fit VMR wheels, same dimensions.

Zoeb@WheelDude.com · 08-03-2010, 04:38 PM

If you like the mesh and the concavity, how about the new Linea Corse LC818's

best of both worlds

Just another option I thought I'd throw on the table

v713s

The VMR V713 gets my vote as it's definitely a more unique design. Concavity is in so if you want to follow the current trend that is definitely the way to go! All VMR wheels will take your OEM BMW Center Caps so they'll also transfer right over. I'll shoot you over a PM with more details! In the meantime here are a few more pictures for you to check out.

I am on the fence about this as well. I showed some pics as examples of both types of wheels on an E90 to a buddy of mine and his quick reaction was "those (lip) are for drug dealers and those (concave) look classy." I don't know if I agree with him, but it was a completely different perspective that I hadn't heard before, and a little funny. In any event, for what it's worth I think I'm leaning toward the Forgestar F14s which have a decent concave look, but damn, those Linea Corse LC818a are really nice and concavity (word?) too.

I would go with the VMR V713, concave faced wheels will never get old.
