Are you guys into concave wheels????? or would you rather have a 4" lip?

What do you guys think of this concept? The wheel will come in 20x9 and 20x10.5 and will have a 1.5" lip in the front and rear. Only difference is the rear will be really concaved.

I want to know if you guys like the concave look or if you prefer having a big 4" lip in the rear.

Gee, those look familiar...so, exactly where did you guys come up with that? I'm guessing you've seen the Morr Alloys monoforged VS7 and VS8 wheels. Loved my VS7's but a real PITA to keep clean.

I was gonna say the same thing, sure looks like drawings of another wheel company ... maybe lets say RAC Monolites?

concave lightweight forged = high performance and great looks

Vossen's new design definitely look like Morr VS7 which is really a copy of the Neez QD7 which is really a copy of the BMW CSL

+1. Yep, but I thought putting 20's on the C63 AMG can be tough (rolling fenders and other fitment issues); don't most ppl put 19" wheels on the C63 if they go aftermarket?

I'd prefer the spokes to go all the way to the rim.

They do look like the CSL wheels which I think are one of the best looking out there. Please, though, make them in a 19" size instead of the 20". Twenty inch wheels are heavier and look like they belong in the hood (not to mention the degradation in ride quality and the cost of the tires).

Make them fit the c63 (not easy) perfectly, and its party time! I love the Neez, Csl, Morr. I just love that style..Theyre all gonna look similar cause there s only so much difference between concave mesh wheels, ya know?
