I thought they already did have a concave face?
 Unless the pic you posted is more concave than the 350z? That red would look pretty sweet on a NFR. -------------------- Currently motoring in a '03 Silverstone S2k I bleed Orange and Blue. Go Gators!  |

Those pics look like they'll be available even more concave than they are currently. Like for example (pulling these out of the air) they might actually be more concave on a 17x9.5 +38 vs. the current ones it doesn't matter how far you go past 9.0 +45, they always look exactly the same amount of "concave-ness" That being said, if it did end up like that...it would look baller. --------------------

Very doubtful. The most common offset for the S is +63. I don't think you'll see any concaveness unless you're under +45 IF any at all. --------------------

I agree. It's down to simple physics. You can't fit more concave than you have mm of clearance  It kinda sucks, but what can you do...Honda designed it that way. |

If they make them in white........Hmmmmmm............The new Oz wheels on Tire Rack are pretty nice.They only weigh 14.6 for the fronts and 15ish for the rear.They also come in white!!!

They call it "concave", but really it's a flat face with a small lip. That would be nice if they could get a more concave face in S2000 fitment, not likely though. -------------------- FS: SOS 3.6" pulley/belt for Comptech SC http://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=729547

Honestly, I'm at SEMA and the wheels at the booth didn't seem any different than what they currently have in their line up.

whoa the LE37 looks like a rota rim. the TE37 in the max concave face with that bronze foil finish is the money rim. that is one thing rota can not copy is the bronze finish of a TE37. |

I don't have final #'s yet but what I have seen show the wheels to be slightly heavier than the RPF-1. In some cases...the larger the size the less the difference with some fitments being lighter. BTW the sizes I posted are straight from Enkei |

Seriously, polished lips look too nasty unless it's deep dished like some low offset work meisters. The polished lip version of TE37 and CE28 look nasty to me.
