Any pics mounted?
Not yet! We're offering special pricing for the first few customers so we can get some!

Ditto plus pricing.
Price is about $2200 for a set, that's about $1000 less than similarly sized forged wheels that don't have proper sizes and clearances for BBK.

So just to clarify, the colors above are a gunmetal and a hypersilver(?) and these below are a black?
That could be gun black, it's hard to tell with the lighting and shadows. The pictures in the original post show the gun black and hyper silver colors. Gun black is a dark gunmetal and hyper silver is a deep silver that has a black base coat.

Guys you're kinda missing the point. They can't be concave in the front if they're trying to fit a BBK.
It would be nice if they offered a size that did concave in the rear though, so you could run staggered, concave rear / flat front.
You're absolutely right. What makes these wheels unique are that they have sizes that can fit a 255/40-17 non-staggered under stock fenders without major fender pulling or ridiculous camber so they're geared for track oriented people. And as a bonus, they are shaped in a way that allows for BBK fitment. They are also a very well constructed wheel that is light and strong and also $1000 less than forged wheels that don't have proper sizing for BBK's.
Unfortunately, concave sizes start at 18x9+15 so that's not an option for S2000's.

My wheels have a concave in front + ST BBK + no rubbing
Advan RS 17x8.5 + 50. They aren't super concaved like my rears though.
The concave GTR face on the Advan RS starts at 17x9+29 or 17x9.5+35 sizes. The 17x8.5+50 has the standard face which does have some curvature to it but isn't what would be considered concave.
The TM-02 Tradition in 17x9+54,+44 isn't completely flat, it has some curvature to the face.
I have to take pics from different angles. Sometimes when looking at them dead-on they appear to have little to no concave. When viewing from an angle they look to have a decent amount. My rears are 17 x 9 +29. You are absolutely correct sir.

RGs, RSs, RZs all curve, but i wouldn't say they concave unless they're gt-r face.
