I know they had 18" back in December... because when I bought my VS-SS back then I was going through the sizing.

Here is what burning black looks like on my rims.

Can anybody confirm the weight of those rims? I was going to buy them over my Fikse's, until Rishie told me how much they weigh.

To give you an idea, my rims weighed around 21-22 pounds a piece for 18x8 to 18x9 and they are pretty similar except for the rivets. I would ask soul assasin, I think he might be able to help you with the weight.

I have the WORK MEISTER SR2 "BURNING BLACK" Sitting in my room.I just havent mounted them yet so thats why I was asking for pics of them mounted.

Ryan,not sure about weight.....I will weigh them and get back with ya.....anyways you arent allowed to get them anyways.Can't have two people in STL with the same rims

I've got a good hold on this line now. I first tried sourcing it when Ryan asked for them. I've established a relationship now and should be able to get pretty good pricing. Let me know if anyone is interested.

Those weights are much less than what I was told. What are the diameters and widths of those wheels that were weighed?

thanks, rishie

My wheels are 17/8 and 17/9.

I had just weighed them on my scale.

I got all 4 wheels for 2450 shipped.

What's the difference between the Work S2 and the S2R? Forged vs cast maybe?

Ah, was flipping thru my Options mag and one of the wheel store ads has the S2R labeled as 2 piece and the the S2 as a single piece casting. Funny as that they are priced almost identicaly for the same sizes... Whats the point?

Anyways, did not think much of them until I saw the pics of yours - they look NICE.
