Exclamation Concave Face : Best Brands?

hey guys just a quick question/discussion.
Im have the Enkei Kojin Wheels on preorder and i love the way they look with that concave face. I really just dont want to wait until they come in around mid March and the date keeps moving so i was wondering if you can give me some Types of wheels that have a Concave Face to it that could fit the FR-S on stock height.
I want to do a staggered set-up with an 18/8-8.5 front and a 18/9.5 in the rear with 235/40 and 265/35 tire in the rear...
** Please give me some Sexy Wheel Choices for a Nice Concave Look that isnt CRAZY Expensive , not trying to spend 3K on wheels lol im in the range for $1000-$1200 Total for Wheels ( Not including Tires etc )

Some wheels that i like are Miro 111 and the RPF1 , i like more of a 5 Spoke Design than anything else

Think if you want more concave you are going to have to go 9"+ width

It appears as though most of the rims you will see browsing the wheel thread aren't showing alotta concave under 9"

If you can settle for the front not being as concave then you will have lots of options I'd imagine. The Miro's were on my shortlist, but they lost in the end to works, which are costing me almost 2x as much.

Yeah i have recovered from the fact that the fronts wont be concave as much as the rear lol and i think that may work in my advantage as it will make the rears look that much better. i love the works but man are they expensive !
You have any wheels for me to look at ? or maybe a website to order from?

being concave is more about offset than width, the new 3SDM wheels are looking beautiful but those wont be out for a while. i expect them to be release in a 5x100 pcd as well..

Just bought some XXR 527 thru @JoeBoxer and got a 18x8.75 35mm offset. Should be here tomorrow and I bought tires today (225/40/18) and new lugs. There is a thread on XXR 527/530 in the wheel section.
