Yeah, it's the shineauto lip 
Fitment isn't perfect, but looks ok.
I try to visit the Nordschleiffe 4-5 times a year. It's a 4 hour drive from where I live and over 20 Euro's per lap, but it's definitly worth it!
Thanks for the nice replies

Sure, I have experience. My wheels are cast, they are made by Enkei but they are a cheep, cast version of a three piece wheel they used to make. I've hit plenty of Wisconsin's best pot holes (not the bumps your call pot holes in California) and they have held up just fine.
I know that name brand wheels are better/stronger, you ARE paying 2... 3... 4... times as much of something. I still say that under normal, street driven conditions, almost any brand of wheel is perfectly safe to drive on. I also do understand the idea of supporting the originals (thats why I have enkeis). The fact remains that there are very few wheels that will just randomly "blow up". Most times when a rim gets damaged its because of low tire pressure, or people driving like idiots on the street.
If your going to track your car, don't skimp on anything. That's a no brainier.
And sense this is a pic thread, here is yet another pic of my not so unique FC (which I would like to get new wheels for lol)
