Default Which rims has the biggest polished lip?

Looking for a not so heavy 16" rim with a big polished lip.
From a price and weight perspective, Konig Holes' seems to be OK

Any other reccomendations

Thanks

Do you want something with a "big" lip? Or a deep lip?

thanks for the replies.

I was more interested in a big lip not a deep one.

Velox wheels are good but I think you don't get it in 16's. Since my car is lowered, 17's will def rub and that is why I was going for 16's

offset, wheel disk/thickness of wheel mounting surface, width of wheel... and of course the definition of lip itself- true lip would be the amount of wheel edge that projects out beyond the face of the wheel, whereas fake lip (what most people refer to as lip), is just the amount of wheel edge.

"definition of lip itself- true lip would be the amount of wheel edge that projects out beyond the face of the wheel, whereas fake lip (what most people refer to as lip), is just the amount of wheel edge"

Based on the defnition above, I was interested in the biggest FAKE LIP!!!!!!!!!!!!

basically the lower the offset, the appearance of the lip compared to the wheel gives it the deep look from what I've understood. Like on big boy cars like Supras, Skylines, etc...18x10, etc...with a low offset...
