My almost complete facelift conversion with 91 wheels. I like the old school wheels that I plan to sell my newly bought Work VSKF wheels. They got the wheel design right the first time. Only needed proper offset. I may order 25mm spacers later.
With Work VSKF

I like the clean look. Also I don't have to worry about the rim getting scratch or bend because of the thin tires. :smile:
 
Both sets of wheels are horrid, but the rest of the car is nice!

I think the original OEMs are fine on an original car, but on yours they look like a set of spares for when you get a puncture.
 
Yes, it looks quite strange, a 02+ style with 91 wheels. Haven't you repainted your red one to long beach blue?
 
Is it your new Work VSKF give u too much stress ? :biggrin:
I think it looks better if u paint the 92 wheels Black or Gun Metal? :rolleyes:
Where's your 99 wheels?

Well put. Not feeling those WORKS, were they expensive?:confused:
 
Not putting you down at all just my opinion. You did an amazing job on the o2+ look, with the hood and wing and colour, but u managed to ruin that whole look with all the money u spend on it with $1500 rims... dont neglect the rims, they make the car!!!

This is my old red one painted to black then lbbp.:biggrin:

How about some OEM 02+ wheels? I don't worry half as much as when I had the 18/19 setup.. Looks like we both need some sideskirts!! :smile:

02 wheels are nice but none available locally and to order a set cost a fortune. Maybe more than I paid for those Works.

Nah. I like the wheels as they are. I traded those 99 wheels with the 91's.

Yup. Quite expensive. Just for the wheels I spent almost USD4,000 for custom offsets and centrebores. Wheels are actually nice (superchrome) but pain me to drive over un even roads and avoiding potholes.

In the future I may get maybe another 15/16 aftermarket rims. Love the tall tires. :biggrin: But I have to sell the Work VSKF first. Anyone buying? Selling them at a lost with almost new tires and Work lugnuts at USD3200. I have to check shipping charges first.
 
Not feeling the wheels. They look like they came off a different car thats why they have a sub par fitment. Overall gorgeous car, but like what JorjeM said. The wheels make the car. Those wheels do not do your car justice.
