Curious what the lip will look like on an 18" HRE rim like the 890. Anyone seen pics or know someone that has them?

And before you say it, 19"s are out due to crappy roads here and $$$.

it'll look fine as long as you have the right tires and drop.

the lip can look any way you'd like. just tell HRE and they will make it.
