Yes, 16” RegaMaster EVOs came with the flat lip but that was it. I would hardly call 17” or 18” EVO II the replica lip since they always came that way.
RegaMaster (what you are calling Promadas) never came with a flat lip and never in 16 inch. I have imported and sold 200+ sets of RegaMasters...
I would say the opposite is true, the Tarmac looks like a replica since 17” RegaMaster EVO and 18” RegaMasters never came with a flat lip. Only the 16” RegaMaster EVOs had a flat lip.

I would ask whoever is shipping them to have them double boxed. After waiting 7 months all mine arrived damaged. The boxes do not offer great protection especially if they have to make it through customs.

The price difference between 87 and 91 is not $1. The difference is $0.30 to $0.40 which is $180 to...
Love my Swift springs as well. Ride is firm without being too bouncy.
Have you gotten an alignment yet? I am debating getting camber arms to dial in the rear.
Negotiated with Tracy over text after I had a deal in place with Petaluma. Got them to $6.5k but I had to use Honda financing.
Petaluma was firm at $7k since they have sold all their CTRs at that price.
