sorry what is "reverse fat lip"
here ya go. make sure you give me some feedback

By definition, one of the features of our “Performance Series” wheels is that they are designed with a stepped lip rim. But we now also offer a reverse flat lip as an option on 18 and 19 inch sizes of the DS3, GA3, GX3, GZ3, and GW3 Performance Series wheels. So if you like the style of these Performance Series centers but want to combine it with the look of the flat reverse lip rim, then please specify this option when ordering. This option includes a slight price adjustment to match comparable Premier Series pricing.

This 19-inch Forgeline GA3 features a Gloss Black center and Polished reverse flat-lip outer. Learn more at: http://www.forgeline.com/products/performance-series-step-lip/ga3-17-18-19-20.html

titanium center and inner, engraved color titanium centercap, hidden hardware, hoping to get alittle more lip on the front


the only thing that is left is my wheel size. 18x9.5 and 18x11.5, 18x9.5 and 18x12 or 18x10 and 18x12?????? after looking at "dust off" and "blue hour" im leaning towards 18x12 and 18x10 but if i go with 18x11.5 its a easier transistion to a 315/30/18 if i wanted too

I'd pick one of the new concave style wheels from Forgeline with a reverse lip/hidden hardware.

looks like this is the winner. only difference is that i will have the polished lip and hopefully i can have the valve stem hidden like the premier series. waiting for the tire tool to show up and then i will be ordering these from matts classic bowties. Great customer service

The one in post 3 is cool, the one in post 6 is pretty pedestrian and nondescript, especially considering it's price. A built to order wheel should not look like an off the shelf piece, imo of course.
