deep dish wheels?

im not very knowledgable about wheels, so please don't kill me....

im looking for a set of deep dish wheels(not sure if thats the correct term), any suggestions? Also, does the offset of the wheel have a direct corrilation to how deep the lip will be? Thanks

Work Wheels offer some options. They call it "disk height." So, you would have different disk heights with the same width and offset but a deeper dish in the rear.

Talk to Adam at Z1 Performance. He is very knowledgable in that area and helped me with my wheels.

I'll find the crummy pics I have on here and put a link up in a sec.

Search for 'Looking for concave rims'. I'm not being shirty, but I think it has a lot to do with what you're asking about.

The answer to your second question is yes and no. It really depends on the width, 'design' of the wheel and how thick the hub is.

see: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...8&postcount=59
and: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...7&postcount=65

for my answer.

Might wanna look into Linea Corsa wheels. You can find them on Wheeldude.com. They're nice looking bbs copies - in my opinion.
