Remember that with white wheels, you will have to wash them constantly. Been there, done that, never want to try again.

I agree white wheels are more trouble than they are worth!Have you seen the new Tenzo R wheels? I've never been a big fan of Tenzo but the new wheels are pretty nice, Def. a Work rip off, but about half the price.

I personally think 18's are too big....17's and slam it in my opinion.

A pair of 4? Did you mean 8? The white ones are clean as hell, but I like a lip.

get some white XD9's. you can get some lip, and they're a bit cheaper because they are a 1 piece wheel.

i think im getting some polished cr kai's soon.

just because it might be a show car on the side doesnt me it need the over used chrome and bling and screen threw out the car. originality is the key to beat those peeps. but yeah i mean i think i might have found someone that would sell them cheeper. not sure it is for a set or individual.

when i hear the term show car im thinking full on paintjob, bodykit, sound system, fully built and tuned engine and usually expensive azz rims chrome or not. "Tuner" show cars usually have some type of wheel made by a japanese company like blitz or volk or something.

On another note looking at the work meister s1, i just realized the rim i wanted to buy is a knock off of the work , but idc im gettin them for $556 anyways. Take that mainstream America!
