Lip or Concave?
Considering new wheels and needing to decide between concave VMR 713 and Linea Corse Z2S.
Got me thinking about which is more popular, Concave or Lip? Also will BMW center caps fit? VMR V713 - Concave  Linea Corse Z2S - Lip

lips look better when your wheels are staggered

Go with the VMR's 713's. I have the 701's which are similar and love them on my car. So go for the 713's.

If you like the mesh and the concavity, how about the new Linea Corse LC818's
best of both worlds     Just another option I thought I'd throw on the table Zoeb |

The VMR V713 gets my vote as it's definitely a more unique design. Concavity is in so if you want to follow the current trend that is definitely the way to go! All VMR wheels will take your OEM BMW Center Caps so they'll also transfer right over. I'll shoot you over a PM with more details! In the meantime here are a few more pictures for you to check out.

I am on the fence about this as well. I showed some pics as examples of both types of wheels on an E90 to a buddy of mine and his quick reaction was "those (lip) are for drug dealers and those (concave) look classy." I don't know if I agree with him, but it was a completely different perspective that I hadn't heard before, and a little funny. In any event, for what it's worth I think I'm leaning toward the Forgestar F14s which have a decent concave look, but damn, those Linea Corse LC818a are really nice and concavity (word?) too.
