i agree the stepped lip makes them look more alike but ...
the whole design of the mesh looks different from the lm to me. on the other hand, the rial daytona race is a total lm wannabe.

How do you determine what offset to run??
I thought that if you used an offset too far off from stock that it would mess with the wheel bearings? What are the stock offsets and what is the difference from using spacers than getting a specific offset to place the wheel a certain distance from the hub?
I currently have the stock 18" 7 spokes and am looking at various different aftermarket wheels, but I've been confused by everyone running so many different offsets and different sized wheels spacers. Is it really just for aesthetics, or does the offset matter when looking aftermarket?

FWIW -- and I don't know if anyone else has had similar issues -- my RHs were not issue-free.
The clear coat that they used started to crack, and as it did so, funk got in the cracks, making the wheels look like they'd been curbed.
Ultimately, the solution was to strip the clearcoat off of them, but it was a minor PITA.

On the lip. The wheel face was fine. Though the RH badges in the center were starting...
To show signs of peeling/cracking clear as well.
I know that'd make you go crazy...
Anyway, other than that, I really liked them.
If you look closely, you can see both a bit of the clear-cracking on the lips (they aren't curbed at all) and on the RH badge:
