ON Deepest LIP in inches?

Not for the "Agressive Fitment" or "Will it fit" thread, just a general question, as I've scoured those threads and did a search...

What's the deepest LIP on a wheel you've seen/installed/know of for the RX8?

18s 19s or 20s

Oh and not Work Miesters -- I can't afford them lol.

So far, the deepest lip I can find is 4 inches on a 20x10 rim:
MRR-GT05-20X10-5X114

Any others?

Lip is usually given in inches. But sure, if you wanna give it in cm that's fine too. Isn't it -.- not ._. ? Thanks for the bump o.O

Nice. That would def be an aggressive fit!

I came across some RTX Titanium wheels:
http://www.rtxwheels.com/en/content/titanium

5" lip
18x8.5
20x8.5

Unfortunately their 20 x 10.5 is now discontinued but it had a 6.5" lip! Can't find a used set. Relatively high offset/easy fit too.

I'm still opting for my original choice for now.

You can get as big of lip as you want... all depends on width and offset. Whether they fit the car your trying to put them on is a different story.

From the faces, my lips measure close to 5" in front and 6" in the rear.
