The info came from.....everywhere. The reverse lip issue is well known and you can google "reverse lip HRE water" or something even close and see thread after thread from other forums talking about it. The easiest test to see if you actually have this style wheel is after you wash your car is there water sitting in the rim? There is a lip on the inside which prevents this water from just flowing out...that is the problem.

You can see the channel that the water gets caught in if you look just behind the face of the wheel on what would be the back side of the wheels. You can see this in the pics above. This channel is also where the air valve stem is located.
