WORK wheels are an awesome deal. For about 300 a wheel you get top notch racing wheels that not only look good but are race proven (Puma evo). Unless you'd rather pay 650 per wheel for volks...

The CAST Kia's I got a "quote" for a Lil over $1,000, but they are cast and weak.

The forged wheels go for over $2,000

Just becuase they are cast does not mean they are weak.......much like just becasue they are forged does not mean they are strong.

It's all in the process that is used. We have sold Work wheels for about 2 years now - have not had to order anyone a replacement yet, and some customers have used them for rallycross, track days, and normal street use.

Yep - the lighter ones are the Emotion Forged, which are basically 2 x the price.

haha, man if you don't have the money, don't play the game. $2k for rims alone isnt anything these days.

As for the cast comment, cast wheels are actually quite strong, skyline owners are switching to cast because of their strength at very high speeds. For the price, the Kai's are a great wheel.

Maybe you should start looking at some nice Tenzo R's!

no such wheel broeli - only the forged Emotion come in that size.

I'll admit $2k is alot of money, no question about that, but in the area of forged wheels, its the going rate, especially ones that are no all that common in the US.
