But you want LIP right? And a FLAT 5 Spoke? You also want to be able to rotate as well correct? Or would you like them made to be same size and offset but have a staggered lip. So the lip is bigger in the rear, but still symmetrical sizing?

It's what I do for a living. hehe. I try my best to read between the lines.

Ok I got the info, with budget of about $2K for just wheels.

OH DID YOU HAVE A COLOR PREFERENCE? BLACK OR GUNMETAL?

If lip is bigger in rear, obviously won't be rotatable.

Are you going to be purchasing a big brake system in the future and if so which one? you must choose now so we can try and get clearance data.

Let me see what I can find once you answer those couple more questions. I appreciate your patience as this will save you some serious headaches in the future.

thanks, Rishie
