Love the wheels! This again furthur proves you don't have to have a deep dish wheel, or a 19" wheel to look badass.

8.5 +25 is not the best offset for the front
1] the spokes don't curve as much
2] does not push the rim out enough
I stuck with this size to go with my tire setup of 245 40 & 265 40 without having a stretched look

yeah. i went with curves rather than the deep dish look for the kind of offset the zee can take.
However, i wished the Work emotions are avail in 19" though

The first Z I see with these wheels, these were my first option prior to my decision to go TE37 TA's... and part of that decision was motivated by the uncertainty on how would they look on the Z.

They look bad@zz!!!! Congratulations on a great set of wheels and a nice ride to go with them! The bend is pretty sexy and the color is a perfect compliment to the bodycolor.

Again, as far as I know, a first for the Z community!! Well Done!!

Really nice wheels...love the color choice!!! The lack of lips on these wheels make them look bigger too.

yep. was looking at the TE37 initially. but these work have spokes that extend all the way to the edge of the rim & curves much nicer than a similar sized TE37

Absolutely, the bend on these wheels is really nice... that is true to other Work models too...

Congrats again!
