Well, I finally got them on.

Work Emotion XT7 18x9.5 +20 MGS all around
Falken FK452 245/40 front, 275/40 rear
Black tuner lugs
OEM TPMS sensors installed, need to get them programmed

Got the rims from Adam at Z1, Adam was a huge help in my decision making process and answered all of my (probably dumb) questions. A great price and fast shipping rounded out the deal perfectly. Thanks Adam!

I KNOW I NEED A DROP.......I'M WORKING ON THAT NEXT.

UPDATED: new pics!!!

Looks good, but I was wondering why it looked as if you were riding so high (until I saw the profile you choose on your tire and the fact that you aren't dropped).

 

Yeah, if i was dropped already i would have gone 35 profiles, but since i'm on stock suspension right now the 35 would have looked completely stupid. So for now I went with the 40 series until I drop.

The front tire is actually a little more stretched than i would have liked, but again, these tires will do for now. Once I'm dropped an inch or so I will be able to get a better fitment on tires. I'm thinking 255/35 and 285/35.

 

thanks again for the order, and enjoy

let us know when you're ready to lower it

Given the roads in our area, I think you made the right choice on the 40 series...and with some slight lowering, it will look terrific

 

40 series looks great if you're lowered on 18s. I have them. When time came ot buy new tires, i stuck with the 40 series cause it fills up the tire gap perfect. Im running 265/35/18, 275/40/18. I may go with 285/35/18 in the rear next time.

 

Nice look!

+1 for Z1

 

been to new york plenty of times...i totally agree!

nice set up!

 

Thanks guys. At first I was a little hesitant thinking the lighter silver colored wheel might not look right on the silverstone, but once they were on all doubt was washed away, I think the color is great. I had seen pics of another member (we be z) with these on his chrome silver and they look fantastic. I think the MGS is a shade in between the chrome silver and silverstone colors. AND I think the lighter color makes these 18's look a little bigger than they are....or at least they look bigger than the MB Weapons I had on their previously.

 

Looking good Ken!!! Glad to see that they look so good on the SS!! Welcome to the XT7 family. How do the Falkens ride?

 

Looks good! Welcome to the Work family!

 

Thanks Cory, as I told you, your pics were my inspiration to get the XT7's over several other wheels I was considering. I was hoping they looked as good on a SS as they did on your CS. I think they look pretty sweet on both colors.

The Falkens are head-and-shoulders above the Toyo Proxes4 I had on my other wheels. I feel a lot more confident taking turns now . I think they may have a softer sidewall or something because they don't ride as rough either, and they're quieter.

I did in fact get to take some better pics in the sunlight just now on the 5th level of the parking deck at work. Unfortunately I will have to wait to get home tonight to post them because I don't have a card reader here at work and I forgot to bring my usb cable for my camera.

 

Thanks, i'm glad to be a part of such an elite group

If these pics I just took come out alright I will post a couple in the Work Wheels thread.

 

Glad I could help you out and can't wait to see the new pics!!!!

 

Edited first post with new pics!

 

Works = Awesome!

Now slam that thing

 

Not bad.
