None that will fit without major rubbing unless you are going wideboby.

There are a few guys on the board with big lips but in my opinion they look/fit like crap.

Really depends on the wheel and if you are willing to run camber, tire stretch, roll your fenders, etc.. It's all up to how wild or tame you want to go. Contact riley, who sells works. He was going to set me up with a relatively mild setup, 17x8.5 up front, 17x9 rear, + 49 & +55 offset respectively if I remember correctly. It was for some work eurolines and it was going to be close to 3" lips in the rear and 2" up front. SSR Professors also have some decent sized lips.

Yes a lip can be had on a few rim choices, but the OP was asking about getting concave Volk TE37's which is more difficult to pull off than a fat lip on Work Meisters.
