Meaty rubber on flush spoke rims?
 
Hello all,

I'm wondering if anyone has seen/has pictures of a twin with meaty tires on rims that don't have a lip like the RPF1, but rather have spokes that go to the edge of the rim like the Assetto Gara. I've done multiple searches on the forums to no avail.

Generally I prefer the appearance of rims sans lips, but I also like a lot of meat.

Anyone? Many thanks.

Here's mine, I hope it helps. Still has a tiny lip though but close enough and I'm running mismatched tires in the picture. F-245/40/18 R-255/35/18

It's the rim face. Look @spitfire481 post.
It is a perfect example. No lip.
This is an example of a rim with a lip. A RReally BIG lip..LOL

Love this 18" fitment. Do you have any other shots of your car? Much appreciated.

Thanks. Since then the height has been tweaked (mostly to tweak after the coil overs settled) , camber is -2.2 all around (-1 up front in these pics). There are a couple more pics here flickr.com/livinzlyfe

Thanks to everyone for helping answer my question. I think I'll be able to get away with a flush spoke/thick tire setup.

Looks sick! What springs/coils do you have, and what's the drop?
