If i could afford Nessen wheels, i'd jump on them…..but until that happens, work wheels are an affordable option.

I think the original discussion is more about the OP not liking the style but he lost me when he said he would rather run Varrstoens, really do I need to repost this photo?



Friends don't let friends run Varrstoens

If that was a Work 2 piece wheel he would have at least been able to drive home.............

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.

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

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

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