Show me your Mesh style wheels.

I'm looking to switch to mesh style wheels and I really can't find many options or make up my mind on which ones to get. I do have a set on mind but I think they are going out of production but that irrelevant. I know a lot of you run CCW but to be honest I'm getting tire of them and I'm not looking for a tracking wheel. I be using my Enkeis for the occasional auto-x event. Step lip would be preferred.

BBS LM, Work VS-XX and Forgestar F14 are the first ones that I can think of. I don't have any pics atm but plenty of pics in the forum and internet.

The problem with looking in the internet is that the ones you see are the one with very low offset and it is a bit miss leading. I want to see them on FDs so I can see what they actually look like.

I just bought set of these. Fake BBS LMs? Not sure but they look awesome. Reasonable price too.

Varrstoen ES 1.1.2

19x10.5 +0

19x9.5 +0



Here's curacaosfinest car with a +22 offset. That's the highest they come in.

They look good but 19s are too big for my taste.

SSR is gonna be your best option for step lip. Most of the Japanese wheels are reverse lip.

Since step lip is coming back i'm sure they will be produced. A domestically produced forged wheel would definitely be an option if in your budget.

The SSR where my #2 choice wheels when I was shopping for wheels. I needed wheel because my OEM rims where bent pretty bad so I needed wheels ASAP but I couldn't wait the 6 weeks waiting period for choice #1 & #2 so I stuck to #3.
