Found these on a forum. I'm thinking about it but iono. They are expensive and I'm dropping a lot of money down right now for an audio system. He actually raised it to $2K because they discontinued them. I don't even know what they are worth honestly. I know they are expensive new though. I'm worried about the rear 9" wheel personally. I have a sedan and 19x8 sticks out already. I did buy a camber kit. How much correction that would to to a wide wheel like this I'm unsure. Please share your thoughts!

So he raised the price to $2k already? lol

You would probably need to run hubcentric spacers for the rears to fit well without rubbing, a 9.0 +45 should come pretty close to the rear struts depending on your suspension height and camber settings.

What do those run? That means I gotta put them more at an angle to tuck too.:madrun:

I think Work only has 1 line of rims left that have 4 lugs.

I don't know why, but they remind me of domestic aftermarket rims, like american racing. Doesn't feel like it has the "Work" style to it.

If your sedan has stock bumpers on it without a lip kit, I'd say to pass. I would be offended as soon as the seller raised the price anyways...

Hubcentric spacers aren't too expensive, and of course you'd need to lower the car & run a bit of negative camber in order to fit a 9.0 rear.

You already have a nice set of wheels, save your $$.

I know the seller he's my friend. I can vouch that this is a deal considering not only because its discontinued but most of all the condition is excellent. And he's losing out big time which is going to happen when we re-sell anyways. I would have jump on this if the offset was a little lower. Because if your on air you can go really, i mean REALLY aggressive offsets. This rims would match my black Sakura.

(my new rims are going to be more aggressive i promise, im still WORKing on it so stay tuned.)
