WTB: Work Wheels!
So, I want some Works on the car, but I don't have the slightest idea who to go through... any suggestions? And for those of you that have Works... what offsets are you running and are there any problems with rubbing and what not. I've read that the minimum offsets we should be using are +48 in the front and +45 in the rear? I'm particular to the Emotion CR Kai's so if Sara would chime in that would be nice... Like what size and offset.
Thanks,
-Brandon

I have some Work VS SS 18x8 offset 51 FRONT 225/40 and 18x9.5 offset 64 REAR 255/35 .I'm lowered on some H&R coilovers..I'm flush all around and get slight rubbing in the front.
rijowysock(sponser on s2ki) sells custom offset wheels which he gets from Japan, but it may take a couple months.

Yeah, those are sweet... I wouldn't mind 18's but my first choice is 17" for sure... Those offsets sound pretty decent, yet you're still getting a bit of rubbing in the front which I'm looking to avoid at all costs. Perhaps the 17" wheel would avoid this??

when i ran my stockies i didn't have any rubbing at all, also flush with the fender.
I forget what the OEM offsets are, but i suggest you get some that are close to those as i didn't get any rubbing with those.

just PM rijowysock with what wheel and offset you like and he'll special order them from Japan.

Ya riley is the shit. Sara works are my old wheels. Riley hooks it up with really good prices. I would say depending on if you are goin to lower it or not 17x8+45 from and 17x9+44 rears are the way to go. 215-45 fronts and depending on the brand of tire 235-or 245 rears

Yeah I PM'd him earlier and the prices are nuts. Trying to figure out the rear rim sizes and then I'm ordering. Also, what color do you guys think on the blue?? I'm leaning towards the gold or bronze, but the gunmetal looks good too... any thoughts??
