The machined lip won't make a difference if you plan to get the wheel rings aswell since the wheel rings cover up the lip anyway. I've never been a big fan of a machined lip/polished ring BUT if you want to have the best of both worlds why not get the rims without the machined lip, then get polished rings. That way, you can switch it up sometimes and if you aren't feeling the polished rings some day you can just take them off and have rims that are all black

good thinking! i might do it the other way around though, machined lip wheels and black rings (cause the black rings are 20$ cheaper, and when they get scratched up i can just rattle can them!)
