Opinions Please: Possible New Wheel Setup
Thinking of getting the 20" Work Meister S1 2pc in Gunmetal (since I have yet to see pics of this anywhere) & I wanted to get everyone's feedback on this. My question is, does the step lip portion look too big on this setup or does it look fine to you? Also, if anyone can please PS these to Gunmetal on SS, that would be great.
Here is a pic of my car (btw...I currently have BBKs which is not pictured on these pics):
And here are the Works that I want but in Gunmetal (pics shown are actual 20" wheels):

that's a good looking wheel james.
i have considered geting these in black, but I promised myself i would not pour any more money than I have to into my car
the wheel is definitely a different look than what you have now. it screams subtle and sporty while your current set-up is more bling and showy.

Thanks guys for your feedback. Yeah, I'm trying to go for a more sportier look & away from the full polished wheels since it's a real pain to constantly keep clean. I even considered taking my wheel apart to have it coated but I fear it might effect the durability of the wheel. Plus, I want the center piece to snuggly hug around my BBK which it currently doesn't do. There is a big gap between the calipers & the back of the wheels which I don't like since I love the snug look.
Well, it looks like some people are not too thrilled with these wheels I'm looking at. Could someone please PS this on my car & change the color to Gunmetal? I'd be interested in seeing this in Black as well. Perhaps actually seeing how it would look like will help me make my decision. TIA...

The Works would be a move in the right direction IMO. Personally I'm not a big fan of the blingin look on the Z, I much prefer an agressive performance look.

Thanks everyone for their feedbacks. I'm taking what everyone says into consideration.
Here's a preliminary PS of these wheels on my car that I had done in our PS forums. I'm still trying to get them to change the color to a dark gunmetal color so I will post those as soon as it is available. Thoughts?

i hear ya, those spokes makes the rim look quite abit smaller. But to follow your wanting for a sportier wheel, 20s might seem a bit on the bling side (not that 19's are "true" sporty like 17-18s).
I since the spoke is going to look different for 19s and 20s i suggest looking at them in person before deciding if you have the chance.

whichever way you choose, it's sure to look hot! and Rickdogg's meisters don't look tiny at all to me!
I still stand by my liking for the 3 piece version over the 2 piece...without the rivets on the s1's, it seem abit TOO plain/steath...
