I'm partial to the CE28N's because I own a set. However, are you going for lightweight, or looks? The 28N's weigh less than the Work's do. It all depends on what you are looking to do really. If it's all asthetics though, it's your car, and I have faith in yoru decision

Weight over look, I know the 17s wont look that big but the front wheel i actually just placed the image of th 28n right over the stock wheel, kinda odd how it looks kinda big though, the rear i blew out of proportion becasue I wanted to fill the gap for refrence. So nwo the question is, black or bronze ce-28Ns? The oly problem is I could get the work vs-xx in those sizes with rubbers for under 3k. but the volsk well not so much....

I would choose the work wheels, but i am bias to a mesh design. Volk gtu is pratically the same thing and should be cheaper. Mmm must clean up the drool on my keyboard now

Yeah I am pretty mesh bias as well actually but when I choose on wheels i always hesitate between mesh and ce-28ns. From what I saw on the baords actually, the work vs-xx was quoted of having a 17lb weight w/o tire. and that was a 18in one too.

Will you be stretching tires? We're doing a crazy end of year deal on all Work wheels. PM me if you'd like a quote and tell me the best quote you got. I'll beat it.

I'll also work on the fitment based on your desired tire sizes.

The only downside is weight of the VS-XX compared to the CE28N.

I knew they would take care of you, especially if you mentioned that the guy that races the white FD reffered you They always beat anyone's price when I let em know. NA-dream's price are ALL overpriced. Well to me anyhow. Lemme know if you decide to buy em, I can always go to the shop and take pictures of them before they ship them to you for quality assurance

Yea, the CE's are the lightest wheel that comes to mind for the size, aside from there Magnesium TE37. . . . which are at 1k a wheel
