I mentioned it in the Rota D2 thread, but those Works are copies of german tuner Lorinser's monoblocks for the early 90's. Much of the whole VIP thing is just emulating what Brabus and AMG were doing a decade ago.

Check these out... these are some REAL exclusive wheels-

BTW, those Impul wheels are awesome, thanks for an excellent pic of them

I love that VW! I don't know if its a new VW trend, but I've seen a handful of VWs with VIPstyle and JDM wheels now. Search VWvortex for a Jetta on Eurolines...

at some pint, wheels are knockoffs of knockoffs. but, The AMG style has grown on me when I began to study wagon tuning in Japan. Hence the reason I bought an xB. Everything snowballed form there. I wouldn't mind getting a set of wheels from AME next time kinda like the VW has. Those look good in deep dish format.

Wow, I didn't know they were made by BBS? I assumed they were JDM only because their web site is in Japanese and memoryfab.com imports them from Japan.
