I think some of us started a trend with the Work S1s.. These actually look really good. A lot better than your CEs. IMO CEs are the Racing Hart CP08 look alike. Good choice and it flows with your theme. Only bad thing about those is you cant run a BBK if you decide to go that route unless you get extended studs, open end lugnuts and a 20mm spacer.
How dare you? J/K To each their own, I'm really not a fan of Work S1's. I think they are a RE Amemiya wheel copy (dats right, straight out of the old school) Then again, I'm really a one piece wheel type of guy. Don't like rivets. I will say though EP3, your car has been the best looking car I've seen with these wheels.

HAHA. I knew I would get the CE guys getting uptight. LOL
Its all good though. I had the CPO8s in 2001. They were actually my first set of wheels if you can believe that. Thats not a bad thing that they look like them just stating an obeservation. BTW I agree with you his car looks the best its been.

Thats funny, I don't even know what 16in CE's weigh? The works probably are lighter. And the Works you have are the Cast ones right? What are your widths?

Question

Holy shit.

Your rear tires are 9.5 inches wide in the back? Advan Neovas? That is some serious rubber too. They must've been a fortune in that size and width.

How does your car handle now with the huge contact patch? Any hesitation on turn in or anything? 8.5 and 9.5 sounds like a little too much rubber to me, but what is your experience with that so far?

Great looking wheels, they look really nice. I love the riveted 3 peice look. I really liked your CE's though. Congratulations I hope you like it as much as everyone here does!
