Nice. I haven't seen these wheels on anyone's car yet but they look good. I don't really like the fact that it has so many spokes but there is just something sweet about riding on WORK wheels.

I have them. The fronts still have not arrived in the country. The rears are here and the lip is huge.

those are going on Kwame's car - that's the 18x10 +18 in matte grey. They also come in matte bronze, or can be powdercoated here in the US in black, gold, white, silver and a few other colors for an additional charge of $110 per wheel.

Nice post!

I think I may get these in 17" - 17x9.5 +28 front and 17x9.5 +17 rear sounds good to me. The pricing is pretty good too!

let us know if you need a set! 17's would have to be ordered as they are not going to be a stocked size in the US in those offsets, but its no problem to get (we already have delivered about 12 sets for the Subaru and Evo)

no way to know what they will fit over as we will be the first ones getting the front wheels in out of any US dealer We are planning a 13 or 14 inch front Stoptech kit for Kwame's car, and I am relatively sure they are going to fit with ease. I know on my car (CR KAi 18x8.5 +20), and my AP front brake kit, I have TONS of room for clearance.

JPsZ - there are no such sizes as those

in 18 inch (the biggest they go) they are offered in:

18x8 +45, +35 +28
18x9 - +43 +38 +30 +20
18x10 +38 +18

As far as timing, the common sizes (like what we got for our Z) will be around 60 days right now. It could take shorter, it could take a bit longer. The 17's have been taking longer as there are not as many requests for those as of yet, so the production cycle is not as frequent. These wheels are just now being released in Japan, with advertisements/marketing now being done there as well. We were among the first few shops in the world to get these (in Subaru and Evo sizes), because of the initial order we placed for them. In fact, we had Subaru customers here in the US with their wheels before some Japanese shops even got theirs.

21.5 lbs for the rear (18x10) - have not received the fronts yet (18x9) but should be about a pound or so less. Hopefully we'll get the fronts next week

I like. Like the price even more. Almost half the price of some Volks without compromising weight.
