Looking for a concave mesh-esque wheel

Basically I'm looking for something very similar to the BBS RS ii:



Notice how it is concave like a stock IROC wheel. This above wheel is close to what I have in mind, but I want 18x9 polished aluminum, and none of that beadlike-esque business around the edge...I want them a little cleaner.

Anything? It has to be concave like the stock IROC wheel. Lip or no lip, either is fine.

FWIW BBS does not list the above wheel on their site.

Searching around, this company makes some awesome *** wheels, but not for our cars, damnit:

Would really love the VB3 in silver 18s.

Re: Looking for a concave mesh-esque wheel

their 5x120 pattern wheels can work, they are only slightly different from our 5x120.65 pattern. People here do it all the time, you will still need spacers though.

Im not 100% on the slightly different pattern personally, it would put a little stress on the studs, but since you are using spacers, maye you can find ones that adapt to the correct pattern as well.
