I don't understand why Works are so revered when the build is nothing special besides JDM?

And the S1 3pc, if you like the look. Yeah Varrstoens.

Waizzz, what did this person do that their wheel shattered. If it was a Volk, sure it probably wouldn't break like that, but I bet a Work work break just as easily, the centers are made in the exact same way.

The point of this thread:

I just don't understand why S1 or VS-XXs are so damn expensive. If you like the look. Ok. But why are you blowing 4k+ on them? These wheels are DEFINITELY not the BUILD quality of any true forged wheel. And they weigh more than almost every forged wheel... Soooo... Just confused... Call me thick... Is it JUST because they're hella JDM? Do they donate $1k to charity on each set?
More power to you if you want to spend 4k on something you like, I just want to know WHY, why do people say "DAYYYYUMM, you got Works?"

That same logic can be applied to any mod, but it's really up to the person to determine what they want to do

Works are popular because they are made in Japan and are highly customizable as well as have been around for a very very long time

Just because it's not your thing doesn't mean it's not quality

That Varrstoen broke because it's an originally 3 piece wheel that Varrstoen made a 1 piece cast wheel. They have no regard for quality or integrity only producing something as cheaply as possible

Didn't NAIL a curb?

"Real" rims bend. "Fake" rims crack. Take my rim for example, this occurrd about a month ago.

Nope, spun out on an offramp

Thinking more about your point of the thread though I personally would never pay for HRE's and don't understand why others would pay nearly 3 times the cost when there are plenty of cheaper options that are just as reliable.

Just please for the love of everything holy don't ever bring up Varrstoen and functional ever again :icon17:

Yep see that's still driveable, that Varrstoen isn't

Lol, well, that pic you posted looks like the guy NAILED something

Why do Turbos cost so much, when I can get fake BOV's and make the same sound. Or get some whistler tips and go WHOOOOwhooooo

yah really. f- the jdm wheels. go shop at ebay for the bestest dealz.

wanna go light? just get 19x6 and 19x7.5 wheels.

And isn't that what all the fuss is with Vossen wheels too? They crack super, super easily. :ugh: Esp. for what one pays for them. :shakes head:

:icon18:


O boy :stirthepot:


wait does that mean my american racing wheels are no good :ugh2:.......:roflpuke2:

But they look so good with Volk Stickers on them.

even better my younger brother (I am older by 8 years) bought some "Fast wheels" when he was 17-18 with his first car, sure they looked good but I think theres a reason why he only paid $650 with the tires for them new!

I'm just S H O C K E D!!!! Who knew when you hit sh!t wheels would break! :)
