WDP Type-S with A-spec body kit, 19" Work Varianza T1S, Eibach Pro-Kit

After 2 1/2 months of waiting, I finally received my Work wheels from Japan. Also, I lowered my car with pro-kit spring. The ride is not as bad as I though it will be, but it's harder than stock type-s ride. Hope my girlfriend won't mind about the harsh ride. It's really not bad, but you can feel every little bump on the road.

As for the wheels, top quality as usual. Great finish and have a lot rooms for Brembo. The specs are: Work Varianza T1S 19"x8.5" +32mm offset R-disk to clear Brembo, 19"x9.5" +42 offset O-disk for most lips. Front has about 1.5" lips and rear has about 3.5" lips. Tires are Toyo T1R 245/35/19. I also used the Iforged TPMS adapter to mount the sensor. Not bad, but they are too expensive for 4 little bracket.

Those wheels are drop-dead F'n gorgeous. The stance is sick.

I can imagine with those tires, AM springs and OE shocks, you'll feel bumps you didn't even know existed before.

Thumbs up WOW. Beautiful

Big Congrats Now thats 1 HOT TL-S

LOVE the TPMS sensor mounts. Thats why I prefer Filet Mignon

vs. 70% ground beef. You get what you pay for.

Work Varianza is 1 HOT wheel

Do you notice any difference in acceleration and braking???



Could you PLEASE get some straight on SIDE pictures? Thanks

I do noticed some changes, but I am not sure what that is.... The car just feel much more stable now. I needed to drive it a little more.

I will take some better side pictures, hopefully today.

I got them from RavSpec. They are in New York, but they ship to CA free. Great service, super friendly, and the best price around.

Wheels and car look great!! Did your wheel dealer get the Iforged TPMS adapters? Those are a great idea. I too went with the Toyo T1R's and love them. They handle incredibly on wet or dry pavement and the tread pattern will catch people's eyes. My only complaint is they will tend to flat spot from time to time but that driving a short ways they will smooth out.

I noticed that also after I put them on. I should have get lower offset at the back, like around +32 instead of +42. However, it's too late now, but I don't have to roll the fender at least.

I got the IForged adapter from another dealer. It was $90 shipped.
