NEW 2011 WORK Emotion 11R-FT - USA Exclusive Edition!

http://i206.photobucket.com/albums/b...k/image001.jpg

With 2011 right around the corner, there are many new additions to the WORK Wheels lineup.

One release we are specifically excited about is the "USA Edition" WORK Emotion 11R-FT. Featuring Matte Gray Silver (MGS) Finish & Matte Gunmetal (MGM) Finish, these are colors exclusive to WORK Wheels in the USA. On top of that, many of you looking for wider / aggressive fitment will be excited to see 18x10.5 +22 SIZING!

WORK Emotion 11R-FT USA Edition:
1) 18x10.5 Sizing: The 11R-FT is the first Emotion series to have a 10.5" width in the 18" sizing
2) USA Exclusive Finishes: Matte Gray Silver (MGS) & Matte Gunmetal (MGM) are standard finishes on this Emotion 11R-FT.
3) WORK Flowforming Technology (spun forming): The key benefit for flow forming is able to reduce the barrel thickness, thus reducing the weight of the wheel without compromising the strength of the rim barrel. The 11R-FT is a good choice for motorsports racing use or at area where there are smoother roads. Unlike our competitors' flow forming wheels, WORK flow forming wheels start with low-pressure cast construction, whereas some of our competitors use lower quality gravity casting.
4) Big Brake Clearance: Due to the design of the 11R-FT, it is very brake friendly to large OEM calipers along with many aftermarket calipers. The 18x10.5+22 will clear front OEM Brembos along with many aftermarket brake kits. Please always check with us and we can verify if our wheels will clear a specific brake kit.
5) Reduced Weight: By using WORK Flowforming Technology, WORK Wheels was able to save on average ~2.2 lbs. per wheel, while maintaining the engineering strength and integrity.
6) PRICE REDUCTION: In order to produce a competitive product to benefit our customers, we set this wheel at an attractive price point.
7) Proudly Made in Japan: WORK Wheels quality is something we pride ourselves on, and this assures you that the product you sell is of the highest quality and engineering standards.

that side profile looks :yum:

We'll have pictures of the Matted Grey version soon.

oh my ******* cum stain....these wheels are hot!!!!! how much?

these bastards would look sick on a PW matte gun metal

Pearl White Matte Gunmetal? Don't they can make that happen.

i meant the matte gunmetals would look great on a PW Z

I wish they came in 12in

Well, those certainly are going to give the Enkei RPF1s a run for their money when I get a set of wheels this summer! I will save this thread, great looking wheels.

^this, will need a bit more to make them perfect for those of us who like a nice stance :)

nice!

18x10.5 is more than enough aggressive for this wheel.

You won't find anything wider for Emotions since they are track-focused wheels

nice but dang those are heavy! weigh as much or almost as much as my 20's good wheels though :tup: and great for the track!

Thats not too bad. For non 3 piece forged wheel those weights are not bad.



Here is some comparison for perspective sake:

18x8, 22.7 pounds

19x11, 26.4 pounds

20x12 wheel weighing 23 pounds? Pics pics pics! :tiphat::tiphat:

flat lips are heavier than step lips and I have the weight reduction package so my centers are milled out. Like I said these are awesome wheels and definitely a great track wheel especially for the price!!! :tup: to driveline for offering these to our members! GLWS Driveline!

Not true at all, it depends on the application, but we have weighed both seperately unless those step lips are plastic?:ugh2:

The Enkei's may be a little cheaper (and lighter), but personalization in face-taper, coloring, and offset runs a little thin with their wheels. For a few hundred more, Work definitely provides well in the competition.

Chris he was talking about my wheels and yes my step lips are lighter than if i went flat lip and no they are not plastic... please lets keep driveline's thread on topic! Thank you!


Eric, I agree these do look like a really great product alternative to Enkei's plus I think the face looks TONS better :driving:

Could you PM me a price for a set of 4? (two 18x9.5" and two 18x10.5")

For pricing inquires, please PM us. To keep things relevant to the purpose of this thread, including the policies stated for this forums sub-section, we will not be pricing out wheels here.

:-(

No 19s...?

Unfortunately Work will not be producing these in 19".

Thanks for the PM Eric, I will be in touch.

np.

Bump

I'd be slightly more interested in these wheels if they came in the same size as the 19'' sport package wheels with a lower offset.

:tup:Nice

:facepalm:

Thanks anyway...

We've talked with Work Japan many times about producing their Emotion series in a 19". Since their customers in Japan never request them much, they seem to think there isn't a customer basis for such a size.

Bump!

Free bump for nice wheels, I cant sleep tonight anyways lol

lol... We have a few sets in stock for those 18" people.

Bump, bump!

Bump!!!

Up, up, up!

Bump!!!
