Opinion needed on Work Wheels

[180fan]

Hey guys, I need your opinions on wheels. I'm lookin into getting some Work wheels, but I'm stuck debating between the Meister S1 3 piece versus the VS-XX. I normally wouldn't be able to afford these rims, but a buddy of mine managed to snag Work and is now a US distributor for them so I can get em mui cheap (well...for work wheels that is...)

[S14 Wannabe]

Meister look nice... S2 R's are the kind I like if I were able to buy some.

[180fan]

mmm sweet and not too bad to have to clean either like the S1's. damn those little screw/rivet like parts on those wheels...so hard to clean...

[offtheline]

The meister s1 is my absolute favorite wheel of all time. It is an absolute work of art.

[OneFastStanza]

Yeah my vote goes for the Meisters which are also one of my favs of all time. They are awesome :ylsuper

The VS-XXs are not a bad looking wheel either.

Equip 01's :thumbup

uhh, can you get me a hookup? :help

[180fan]

uhh, can you get me a hookup? :help

leave your email and I'll get back to you. I'm hookin up my buddies with work wheels since they got their tax returns and have some extra money lying around.

I think I'm gonna get the meister s1's. The s2r's are sweet and all, but I want that deep lip that the s1's have on them. I nearly crapped my pants when I saw them in my buddy's hands. would 18 x 10's +6 offset or 18 x 11's +0 offset have a hard time fitting into a fastback?

[BomexS13]

you might need flares with that kind of offset, specially in the back. I have 18x10.5 -2 offset in the back.

Are you able to get some works lugnuts?

Yeah the wheels come with all genuine work hardware.

I was hoping I wouldn't have to get the fender flares with those wheels...but I was expecting it. Prices for 18" tires are way expensive! I think I'll have to opt for the 17" and have my buddy order me the deep dish ones with some wide body panels...oh man why do car parts have to be so expensive!!! *cries*

[180fan]

oooh almost forgot, Chmercer, you've got mail. Also i reread the post about Work lug nuts, yeah he can get them.

[BomexS13]

how much?

[180fan]

Bomex, the lugnuts are out of stock and take a few months to get. I asked what he had in stock, he said he's got some muteki's for 40+ shipping (unless you've a better price) and possibly some Rays lugnuts.

[180fan]

The price for the Rays lugnuts is 125, for that much I'd personally rather get some mcgard lock nuts and spline drive lug nuts.

[180fan]

you guys can reach me on aim at red180man if you guys want some right off the bat info on them.

[BomexS13]

i want things uniform so I'd go with the works lugnuts. I dont need them rightaway since I"m still finishing up my celica for some shoot. Just want to know if theres another place out there where I can get the nuts cheaper.

[180fan]

oh right on. You've already got some work wheels for your s13?

[shawawini]

180 fan this is totally off the topic, but i cant find your other post... do you still have the gp sport exhaust for sale , possibly e-mail me offline. Also, those rims are money!!! They would look sweet. [email protected]

[180fan]

Yeah I've got those GP exhausts. Yeah those rims are money, but I can get them much cheaper than what anyone else can. Hee hee hee!!! by the way Shawawini, you've got mail...like in 5 minutes. LOL

[BomexS13]

oh right on. You've already got some work wheels for your s13?

Yuppers, I want them in blue:ylsuper

Are you able to get JDM sidemarkers. MInes busted, might as well replace them with jdm units.

[180fan]

What's your email? I'll get back to you on that one. I'm pretty sure I can get the GP Sports clear markers but I'd have to double check on monday.

[BomexS13]

im talking about this sidemarkers....

[180fan]

yeah the ones with the bump on it pictured? That's the one I'm talking about.

[BomexS13]

yea yea yea that one. I dont like clear ones, orange is fine. Email me [email protected]:thumbup

[shawawini]

hey 180fan, my bad i mispelled my e-mail address. It should be [email protected] i didnt put the 'a' in comcast on the other. Thanks again

[180fan]

Shawawini, I was wondering why my previous email bounced back to me. LOL. Well both you guys got mail.

[BomexS13]

GOt your email. THe price is good. Now when can you get it? Maybe you can hook me up with some coilovers at cost:thumbup hehe

[180fan]

I can get all Tein products for at least 10% off if that floats your boat. Some of the other JDM stuff varies but I can get stuff like Kei Office, Zeal, JIC, Cusco and other stuff if you want. I'm personally saving for some Zeal D1 spec coilovers. Those'll be so sweet since I'd be able to get 6 months warranty with $100 reuilds with a 3 day turn around for them...sweet Jesus...

[yashin]

hey 180fan, I was talking to you about works rims as well

unfortunately a deal came along on a set of advans that was too good to pass up, so i'm not going to be needing new rims

but as bomexs13 said if you can get coilovers at cost that'd be sweet

thanks anyways
