Can the rears be ordered with a concave lip like my CE's? I'd be all over these if that was the case.

They can, but I believe it isn't possible for our offsets.

Almost like what I'm doing. Very nice!!!!!!!!!!

I'm going for white TE-37's 8.5 front 10.5 rear also doing the feed sideskirts or (autoexe) and I have an N1 hood as well.

you are right, the only way you can get that look is if you go with a 22 offset in the rear i.e. 350Z offset. also, since they are limmited ed. they only come in limmited sizes. one option is 19x10.5 ET 22. in order to fit these wheels you would have to do some wider fenders in the rear

Saw these wheels on an S2000 at the SCP show. Sick, I love them. personally I find on a red, black or white car they would look even sicker. But I envy you very very nice.

You speak the truth. When I got my LE28Ns (same widths and offsets), I ran into the same thing. There was only 1 set available at the time.

the fronts were rolled from a previous set of wheels - 19". The rear was not. I had to roll the rear passenger side becasue under boost, it would rub.
