Sushi, there 15x6.5......40 offset? The fronts are okay, but the rears need some pushing out. They are the cast version, not the forged version (which cost something like 3 or 4 hundred a piece. The casts are about a 100.00 each. very light weight, I think they are something like 11 or 12 lbs. Gotta becare full though, even though they're 15's driving into potholes, bumps and stuff at high speed will warp them at high impact.

Also, though I didn't have to grind, the front brakes sit sup sup sup close to the rim...a few mm. But it's been okay for more than a year...no rub or anything, but it looks scary!

From what I seen, Work makes some deep looking 15s in the Equip series like the AllStarXb and others. 01,02,03 are the models I think.

I like the style of the rota's i have, and the color, i just wish they were wider and maybe like 16" or 17" max. I want to see how they will look once i get lower with my bags but i'd love to get some 15x8 Equips

205/50/15 kumhos.......I kind of liked the chunky bulged look. I remembered that back in college, a friend of mine put the 20/50's on his rabbit...but i guess these days, most people are looking for that stretched, low profile look.

Thanks for the comments! Proves you don't have to spend alot of $$$ to look good, used the stock tires and that saved some dough
Only thing next is a CF hood and I'm finished

Here are the wheels we are considering. What do people think?

At only 63 a wheel, it seems like a great deal.

eXcite Box how much are those works with tires?? Ur xB looks nice!! I plan on getting BOP too! Do you think that if I use other springs than tanabes I could get that kind of drop? Also to everyone else, what's the average price of Work wheels? I think I just might get 15s instead of the TRD 18s.
