Default My Works

Alright guys, I finally got around to taking some pics of my Works. They are Euroline LS in 19x8.5F and 19x9.5R. Tires are bridgestone S0-3 245/35/19 and 275/30/19. It has the L-tuned shocks and springs. Id like to thank Gs4will, 2savvy and bitkahuna for their help. This is the first time ive taken pictures of my car, sorry if they're ghetto.

Very nice wheels. I want to get those for my LS but i have no money. What % tint do you have on your car? I have 15% all the way around.

Looking sweet....can't wait to get them on my car once its out of the shop. Those chrome spokes are like mirrors, do you have the Supra TT brakes yet? Didn't notice them in the pics. Just got done ordering mine, awaiting delivery from Steve.

Wow! I am very jealous now. That is a very very nice set up. Only if Mrs. would let me get it...

Sirsomo, when you get a chance, can you please take a 45 degree shot from the front and the back. I would like to see the offset lip effect on your Work LS.....

Much appreciated,

sirsomo,

thank you for sharing the pics with us, and glad you like what i picked out for you...the offset is +40 for the front and +38 for the rear...
for the pics, like kaju said, 45 degree and have the camera aimed at ~belt level of the car would show the wheel and car even better....and larger too

btw, nice garage you got...like the X5 in the back ground..

Sirsomo,

Glad you got them on finally.. No worries about the help just wanted to make sure you guys didn't go through all the crap that I had to when they installed my LS wheels.. I haven't had a chance to take that picture of the open ended lugnuts & locks yet but i'll try to this weekend when I get the car detailed..

Funny thing is pictures do not even do these wheels justice IMHO.. But perhaps this is a biased statement.. Oh well..

Anyways here is the last picture I will be posting on CL of these wheels.. Lip action anyone..

Thanks for all the feedback and compliments guys. I'll try to take some more pictures in a few days. Sorry about the size, for some reason i was thinking they had to be under 20k. Check the other thread if you just want to see the wheels not on a car. Like 2savvy said my pictures dont really do the wheels justice.

-I have 20% tint all around, except windshield.
-I still have the factory brakes, they actually look better then I thought they would. Im planning an upgrade, but cant decide which brakes to get. Once I decide which brakes I'll have to get a bigger spare, right now I have the factory.
-I went with Ltuned because I go over about 20 speedbumps a day and it wouldnt be practical to go any lower. Im thinking about doing the Tein Flex in a few months, we'll see.
-I still need some open-ended wheel locks for the rear if anyone has any. I'll have to check the auto parts store.

The ride is pretty good, its a little rougher and the tires are a little noisier, but its still smooth, and handles better. Im going to tinker with the psi on the s03's and see if that helps any.
