Work Varianza Schwert SC1

The good news: I placed an order for the Work Varianza Schwert SC1

The bad news: 2 months before I get them.

More bad news: It will be winter time so I'll have to wait until spring to throw them on.

I have 2 days to call the shop if I change my mind on the finish. I ordered these in Crystal Silver but feel I should have gone with the Machine Silver Polish.

Which one of the two would look best on a Black A-Spec? The car is dropped all the way on Teins. Fenders will be rolled and tabs cut as I'm getting 19x8 +45 offset

Opinions would be greatly appreciated... I cant decide. Thanks


1) Crystal Silver



2) Machine Silver Polish

The machine face will have more of a shine to it, so it depends if you want shiny or not.

Just be sure to NOT run a 40 series tire lol

225/35/19

I would say with either a Falken or Toyo, fender rolling would not be needed.

EDIT- those wheels are sick

I went with the black center cap. the machined polish does look nice in that pic, i think i'll have to give the shop a quick call back and have him change my finish.

I wanted to go with 19x8.5 but was too afraid of rubbing. If I knew for sure that it wouldnt rub and I didnt have to adjust my camber too much to make it fit i would have gone with it.

I was thinking of going with 8.5 in the rear but yesterday was the deadline to modify the order.

Out of curiousity did you have to adjust the camber a bit to make it fit?

Machine face is always a winner in my book. It's to bad to hear that you got to wait that long.
