they're real. he bought them from smitty.

the wheels/tires are meant to be a gunmetal/"satin silver" finish - they're probably spotless considering how well smitty maintained his car.

i think a better pic is very necessary.

I was wondering if anyone was ever gonna buy those from smitty...they're not quite my taste, but they look a lot better with a BBK.
I do like the Rota's better though.

well i personally think it looks better, but i'm saying the ssr is a better wheel quality and weight wise not because of the looks....and comparing work to konig? are you serious?

cool that they are real. those are some really nice wheels. i bet smitty did leave them spotless. to me it just looked like the lip could have more luster to it and some tire shine pleeeasse!! then a better pic too

No..Of course Work makes better wheels, I'm just saying some people would buy an ugly ass Work Wheel instead of buying a better looking Konig Wheels..There is no doubt SSR makes a better wheel but his Rotas look better on his car than the SSR

GT3's. I'd have to choose quality over looks. I do however use some random rota wheel as my spare tire. It was the only cheap rim I could find to clear my brembo's.

Thought about these at one point. Look good. I'm sure they're a good wheel too.

i disagree. i personally think the rotas look cheap.

the ssr's are MUCH better looking than the rotas.

Rotas are for the civic/integra/wrx rice boys who want to have light wheels with knock-off spoke patterns.

I wouldn't even begin to compare Work to Konig. There doesn't exist one work wheel design i would take over a konig.

do not sweat the haters Ryan, they just wish they had the money to buy them.

They will make the same mistake you made the first time around and buy a rim and tire that is inexpensive and NOT their first choice.. (In a nut shell, always buy the best wheel that strikes your fancy the first time around, or else you will end up wasting money in the long run)

but you kind of asked for it by showing a picture of your previous rims and the dirty SSR's in a night picture..

P.S. I got to get to my garage next week and mail you the warranty/wheel lock code information just incase you lose the key to your wheel locks...

P.S.S. I found another valve stem extender for you that I will mail out too..
