these are nice too!

They look like the Volk CE28n's.....are they just as light? What's Work's lightest wheel?

I assume it's fully forged, two piece rim?

GORGEOUS!

If these wheels are over $450 each, you won't find a market for them here. Good luck.

Manny,

I thought you were interested in a set....

with the sizes I might be interested...as I could fit 18x9.5 front 18x10.5 rear....

Regardless....pretty pictures

oh, BTW, what is so special about Work wheels? I didn't even become aware of them until after these threads started appearing. I saw some on other cars posted on the forum, but was never excited about them asthetically.

I guess they are very well manufactured rims? Respected manufacturer? Race proven? Kinda like Fikse and Kinesis here in the states?

Sleep I'm waiting to receive some pads from Japan for you and Max. I've asked for a race/track pad to be sent for your testing purposes. Based on Rishie's recommendation of you and Max i'm inclined to help you with sponsorship of wheels as well if you desire. But obviously don't want to waste yours or my time. i'm here to support as a manufacturer and share information as it should be done.

Retail on these: $2500.00

Check this out. Reviewing the specs, this is a two piece weld with variable offset of 1mm. For FD you can run 18x9 +50 and 18x10 +52 if you desire. This can be done in stock like offsets and clear big brakes in the "R" pad for big caliper. WOW!!!!!!

Mandated club pricing on these is probably around 15-20% off. This is up to dealer or distributor. We've allocated a structure for this to them. so it's probably around the $2000.00 range. Just like GT series volks. About same pricing, but these can be custom built and work can confirm caliper clearance.

Oh yes, we do not offer these wheels to public and have asked Work Japan to list our allocated distributor. Let me find the link. Feel free to call endless or pm/email me and we can refer you. We are in the process of building a beautiful site solely for this purpose.

Endless usa site will remain endless. You will definitely see the relationships we posess thru the vehicle gallery and our current official US campaigns. I think many of you will like to see this. We are building many FC's. Many older vehicles for our motorsports endeavors.

http://www.work-wheels.co.jp/wheels/overseas/usa.htm

It is the very bottom dealer. Auto R & D. www.autornd.com

Hehe. Ted's playin the name game. I'm surprised that wheel companies can still come up with new variations. You'd think they would run out of option.

Nothing in 17s? Might set up something in 2005. Let's stay in touch...
