Hmm... These would look pretty slick (but would require adapters).

As I said before, I'm pretty over the whole lip/dish look, and I really dig these (though they're not what I was thinkin' earlier...).

Bah. Lips are played out, as evidenced by how difficult it is to find a non-lipped wheel...

The goal is elegant wheel (5-spoke preferred) with no lip.

Default Great looking wheels, but...

weren't HPEs banned from on-track use by some clubs due to failure? Has that been rectified? How does that translate to everyday use?

Default Nice but...something to think about

I've always loved that style mesh. Its too bad absolutely no one makes them in 5x100. The first two companies do make custom wheels though; asking could be worth a shot.

HREs? I didn't realize they had issues with that...
