Default WORK SCHWERT SC-2 Wheels

Wine Guys was asking about these wheels of mine so I thought I'd reply here in case anyone else is curious.

I got the most aggressive offsets (according the the sticky thread) without needing to do mods. My exact size for, I think, the fronts are not specifically mentioned, but it easy to figure out what offset was needed by looking at the other sizes.

Here are the specs:

*Step Lip.
*O-Disks (the other type, I think "A" and there is another type, allows you to use larger breaks. I can't with mine)
*Black Polished Finish.
* REAR: 20X10.5 +30 offset
* REAR tires: 275/30-20
* FRONT: 20X8.5 +18 offset (the next size was 9.5 and I didn't want to do major mods)
* FRONT TIRES: 245/35-20
*Tires are Vredestein Sessanta

Thanks.

Yeah, lowered on Zeal (Endless) coilovers. The fronts are higher than the rears and even now they rub when taking tight turns (but that only at slow speeds anyway). They have settled some in the rear, unevenly so that needs to get adjusted (I've had them already for a year).

After getting them, I feel 19's would look better. They just look SO HUGE right now. But like someone else said, 20's look like a better fit with a kit. But I'm not going to spend thousands again for a kit when i'm saving for a house. So next summer maybe the Job Design.

Nice. Let's see some rear pics of the fitment. Work wheels used the SC-2 rims on there SC430 demo ride too. Now they are using those restirere (SP).

I think a lot depends on the wheel style too. For whatever reason, full-face wheels don't look quite as big.

You finally posted it.
What was holding you up? lol

20" looks best with a body kit.
Or you can slam it without a body kit.

As for the bbk fitment, it depends on the wheel spoke design.
Generally, you will need the high disk type to clear bbk.
I believe it is called R-disk for Work wheels.

Sometimes the normal disk type (A-disk for Work wheels) is good enough to clear bbk if the specific bbk you like also has slimer calipers .
Do your homework on that one because you may be rewarded by getting a bigger lip size and less weight for the same width.

If you don't plan to run bbk at all, the low/super low disk type (O-disk for Work wheels) is the best choice for maximum lip action.

I LOVE those wheels! nice selection but once you drop it you'll be on par with my favorite SC430 that showed me they have great appeal potential once done right.
