Another new wheel thread...Work XD-9

I took some quick pics of my new wheels. I will try to get some better ones this weekend if it does not rain.

They are Work Emotion XD-9 18x8 +35 offset. They are custom powdercoated satin black by Work Wheels USA in Cali. Tires are Falken RT-615 in 225/40/18, dropped on Tein Basics.

Thanks for the compliments! I went with the +35 offset so they would be flush and it really does give it an incredible stance. The black is a custom color so pretty much no one has it which is why I wanted it.

I got mine through Ravspec, who are great guys. You would have to pm for a price because mine were more because of the color.

any idea on how much they weigh?

the emotion series from work has a reputation for being VERY strong, but at the same time heavy.

please let me know if you have the wiehgts on them, and also, why did you go with the 18's over the 17's?

That sounds about right, they are not forged so they aint gonna be too light. But lighter than your run of the mill knockoffs for the most part. Went with 18's over 17s because I have 17's for winter wheels and they just look small in the wheel wells.

I actually got the idea for these wheels while browsing for used TE-37s on NASIOC. Ravspec is a sponser there as well and I thought what the heck...
