Trying to decide on which deep dish wheels I would consider buying for different price ranges. What are your top choices for these:

over $4000
$2000-$4000
under $2000

Mine so far
over $4000 HRE 560R
$2000-$4000 Advan RS-D
under $2000 Linea Corse Lemans

[mustangivore]

Any opinion on 19" Linea Corse Lemans 8.5 et30 front, 10 et37 rear for an E90 LCI lowered on H&R Sport springs?

[mustangivore]

anyone have an opinion on deep dish in the $2000-$4000 range?

[mustangivore]

I know interest is low but hopefully someone can help clear up some questions here. I have a concave wheel picked out and have been trying to determine a deep dish wheel (my favorite style) before deciding on a purchase.

Under $2000 I like the LC Lemans but lack of black face with polished lip not to mention the weight leaves me looking in $2000-$4000 range.

I really like Forgestar's F14F reversed lip design. A bit pricey for not saving much in weight (deep dish much heavier than concave F14) but look is beautiful. I'm going for a fairly aggressive look but still with some class to it. I would definitely have the fenders rolled but prefer not to do any pulling or major modification.

Looking at this reverse lip 19" setup on my E90 LCI lowered on H&R Sport spring with fenders to be rolled:
19x8.5 et32 235/35 PSS
19x10 et38 265/30 PSS

Q1: Any concerns about that fitment given I will roll fenders?
Q2: Can I go even more aggressive with lower offset, or maybe stretch slightly with 225/35 & 255/30?
Q3: How much poke are we talking about with the above setup?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. It will fit for sure with rolled fenders.
2.Yes you can use wider wheels or lower offsets.
3. Won't poke at all. The front is about 10mm from flush and the rear is about 5mm.

Thanks!

So are you thinking the following relatively flush fitment would typically not rub with a standard fender roll?

19x8.5 et22 235/35 PSS
19x10 et33 265/30 PSS

Which wheel offset & tire combo would you choose for aggressive look but only minor fender modification? I appreciate your thoughts.

That should be flush.

Q1: Would that rub at all? If so, would a little stretch with 225,255 versus 235/265 remove it?

Q2: Would 18" reversed/flat lip look good or is deep dish really meant for 19" or more? Seems like flat lip wold look good but stepped might look small since inner part is like 1" less diameter?

Thanks for your continued help!

What about CCW's?

Within your budget and amazing wheels

Thanks! Great recommendation. I heard of them but I'm still catching up on all the possibilities out there and did not research that one.

Seems like many 18" deep dish look small, especially stepped lip due to ~ 1" less inner diameter from the step. But I see vietkidd has a 18" CCW setup, which looks very nice.

For 19" SP/Tapered Series seems fairly comparable to Forgestar's F14F. Will give that some serious thought.

Any opinion on 18" versus 19" for deep dish? I like extra sidewall with 18" but wondering if it typically looks small and how look changes against E90 LCI lowered on H&R Sport. THANKS again for your help!

Coming from knowing nothing and reading thread after thread, it's still easy to miss very well-known choices.

Well youll have to be a little bit lower to pull of the 18's. I agree with you on they look a little small with lip but I think they look good on e90's

[135Pats]

I'd get Classics or VSXX but it's completely subjective. Nothing beats VSXX at any price range IMO.

Yeah, I definitely see how a tucked or nearly tucked drop can match well with 18", and I don't like the look as much when I can see lots of sidewall extending out from a dished wheel. of course pictures can be deceiving... Good to hear you think they look good on E90's. I don't have the experience with BMW's or wheels (yet) to make that kind of observation. Could give more possibilities like the Classic or LM20...

As for 19" it's pretty much SP series, which I happen to like anyway. I'm curious to find out how the price compares to F14F after factoring in finish (and shipping)...Wheel price is close...

based on the little research i did, seems like Classics are not available in 19" although I know they look good in 18" on lowered cars (at least). I'm lowered but still prefer 19" if I get deep dish. but maybe i'm being ignorant about the size. actually i hope so because it would be great to have a lighter setup

thanks for the suggestions! i definitely came across Work in my research. gold against alpine white would look awesome...

you have any 19" deep dish wheel suggestion in the under $3000 range?
