Default Just ordered my Work S1

My 21st bday is this Saturday so I just ordered my wheels! Finally decided on Work s1 3 pieces in gloss black. 18x9.5 all around with a 15 offset. Will be running Falken Azeni rt-615 265/35/18 all around as well. I can't wait to get them in, it will take 4 weeks so at that time I will have some pics up! Anyways thanks for the help on the pole I had up the other day!

curious to who told you a 4 week lead time on them (unless they already have that size on order, count on double or triple that wait)

sweet wheels for sure!

I autocross every once in a while so I wanted to stay 18. As far as 9.5 all around, I didn't want to stagger b/c it promotes understeer and I prefer some oversteer for autoX.

Yeah the rota's are knock-offs, that's like saying the rota p45r is the same as the nismo lmgt4.

Doesn't make sense to me... You could use Adjustable sway bars to fix that problem....

Have them already, alot of autoX guys run same size all around. Also alot of people on this site do the same thing, and Sport Compact Cars 350Z as well. Also you can rotate the tires, which will be nice.

I've always loved those wheel, they look like they were made for our car. I just wanted some 18's so I could run my azenis.

SCC changed to a staggered setup awhile ago

stagger in and of itself does not "induce" understeer - it's very much in the overall chassis setup, and of course, the driver.
