Work VS-XX wheels alternative?

[jfandem]

I really like the Work VS-XX wheels but arent they like over 600 a piece? Is there any wheels that look similar (with deep dish rear preferrably, and in gold with silver lip?) Or, does anyone know where to get the wheels cheaper? Thanks...

DEEP DISHZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

[LookOut Nick]

agreed save the $ it is so worth it in the end!

[fromxtor]

There is only one WORK, don't cheap out on the only thing keeping you rolling.(besides tires of course)

[chmercer]

vsxx is such barf mesh, i dunno why everyone likes it. i hate the way the rivets go through the wheel face. whatever
rezax is like 30 times cooler

Thanks.....Im all for spending the money for the 'real' thing when necesarry, but I assumed there are alot of replica wheel companys that make good quality wheels still. That black one is close, but I want gold really. Who knows the best price on new Work ones? Thanks again.

[CrazyIvan]

luff m1 look great and are fairly priced

[koukimonster139]

dont assume.
as far as price, that depends on offset, disk, size, blablabla

check these. 2k is cheap.. http://rbmotoring.com/gallery/album335

theres also some outrageous s1's on their for sale for 2200.

[FunctionFiRst]

There are NO wheels that could be an alternative for VS-XX. Trust me. My friend just slapped them on his car, and GotDamn!

[Nizzan4u2nv]

as far as price, that depends on offset, disk, size, blablabla.

Not really. Its only dependent on diameter, width, and color if not standard. You pay more sometimes for offset if you want custom.

[koukimonster139]

yea i was implying custom sizes regarding offset and disk. mainly diameter and color tho....

[Dousan_PG]

http://www.work-wheels.co.jp/wheels/index/vs-xx/vs-xx.html

compare.

[kensreliableb18b]

haha, ok that was a good laugh. anyways, i'd never trade my vsxx for your "vsxx" :)

[JVD]

Yeah, those are just some old work mesh. Are they like mercer's? I don't remember.

PS. Cool Beanie Babies :keke:

[kensreliableb18b]

iirc those are vsmx works

[woodchuck]

whoa, gt_240 got got if someone sold them to you as VS-XX. looks like they are VS- "Edition?" (see link)

http://rbmotoring.com/gallery/album226?page=4

and don't beleive this bullshit either:
.....but I assumed there are alot of replica wheel companys that make good quality wheels still.

I suggest you talk to Logan form Aspec (seach for Aspec on zilvia), he can school you about NOT getting bullshit knockoff wheels and maybe get you a good deal on a set of VS-XX.

[ThatGuy]

Like I already FUCKING said:
Knock Offs = SHIT!.

http://rbmotoring.com/gallery/album226?page=4

Well looks like i stand corrected... they are "VS edition"... ohh well.. these are my OLD wheels that i bought close to 3 years ago i used to drive daily around with.. and the thread starter was looking for a cheaper alternative.. which im giving him.. there still WORK wheels and STILL similar style and STILL CHEAPER...

kensreliableb18b: why dont you give yourself a pat on the back.. i never asked to "Trade" wheels with you...nor did i ask your opionion.. Just trying to help the guy who started this thread out... im glad this thread was a self-esteem boost for ya..

[kensreliableb18b]

FYI they are VS-MX as i stated before, and judging by you calling me a "loser" i had no idea that this thread was a self-esteem booster for yours truly.

on a side note: personally i think they more resemble the rezax line.

if you wanna sell your wheels make a new thread in the fs wheel section.

[chmercer]

you should buy 5zigen sports engine wheels from splparts

http://www.edgeracing.com/images/wheel/5zigen_sport_engine_sc3000_(hyper_black)_angle_zoo m.jpg

ohhhhh YEAH looks so nice. and good prices too. you could paint them gold if you really wanted.

[viscid240]

chmercer: Those are nice and price good. If he is willing to test the 19's on the ride....

youve been driving around for 3 years thinking you had VS XXs ... you need a self esteem boost.

http://rbmotoring.com/gallery/album12 <~ VS edition
http://rbmotoring.com/gallery/album368 <~ VSMX

koukimonster139~ i didnt know driving around in different style wheels is suppose to lower my self-esteem.. they were used when i bought them.. i didnt spend to0 much to get them.. and when it comes down to it there still authentic WORK's ..

[SimpleS14]

PS. Cool Beanie Babies :keke:


I just noticed that....I wonder if they are worth anything.

[usdm180sx]

How you gonna be a baller rockin' cubic zirconia or a rolex that changes color in the water?

[Ian]

Alternative?!


Here's an alternative...Don't buy anything at all


Keep saving and buy REAL VS-XX later

good advise!!!!! btw get used to looking at your stock alloys for a while

[ZX88]

these look pretty close to the works.
they are aerospeeds though they look pretty nice imo.

face looks similar but sizing is horrible. but hey, it's still an option for him

looks pretty close but... :barf:

bottom line is, you gotta pay to play. if vs-xx is out of your price range then go for some other jdm wheels. rule of thumb is to keep it real if you want to ball out like that.

think of it this way: A cz looks pretty close to a diamond....
c'mon jfandem, you're better then that.

[widegts]

i have works... the big thing i noticed is.... HOW DURABLE THEY ARE, compared to the fake rims...


I curbd my works at like 40mph, just had gashes and scratches, my fake rims... um, didnt hold air after...


thats my two cents

[DRFT180]

I went a little off course at a track day doing about 90mph. The inner lip of the rim hit cement while the rest of the wheel went into the grass. Bent the inside lip of both wheels, leaked air but was still able to finish the track(until motor blew). And have driven on them for a while, just have to check the air pressure often. They are off now waiting to get fixed. I'm sure if I would have done this with any kind of knock off wheel the damage would have been much much worse. And these were Work VS-XX's

[lucky7]

bah, PM me in about a week - week and a half. if this guy doesnt buy them, we can talk. 17x8 all around.

[sLiDewAys]

here is an alternative.

look these up

ALGERNON

made by the same people as CST ZERO verry nice wheels.

[Nizzan4u2nv]

algernon intelesse II
http://boyz.co.jp/algernon/img/wheel/inte/s_gold.jpg

Slightly cheaper but dont know how youre gonna get them. Possibly memoryfab.

[chmercer]

algernons are way more badasser than vsxx, look like LMs

[sLiDewAys]

yeah memory fab, someone from the ziptied forums sells the cst company wheels. cannot remember but he can get them.

['90RPS13]

Dude, just get the REAL DEAL's. I debated on the Sportmaxx 962's which look similar but I would much rather have the true VSXX in 18x9.5's and 18x10's!!!! So I am now playing the waiting game. *a

[projectdrifter]

try a set of hp evos they are mesh have a lip and can be found for under a grand brand new... jump on it

[sideview_180sx]

the only alternative to true vsxx, is not having vsxx at all, end of story. if you don't have a problem dropping the cash, then drop the cash.

[boost infested]

I like the VS-XX but some how the Volk GT-U looks better.. I dont think the GT-U's are any cheaper...

http://www.bigbeartire.com/volk/2005/gtu.jpg

[Ninjabread]

Vs-xx > Gt-u

[lucky7]

i think the only volks i like are CE28N's. otherwise, i think all the styles are pretty lame. the GT-U doesnt compare to the the VS-XX (again, IMO). im a WORK fan for life now. they all look amazing, and i think the bling factor is that much more than rays wheels. if i dont go with another set of works, ill probably go with CCW classics or BBS LM's.

[ayuaddict]

BBS LM's FTW.

[Rayne]

Lock Smice Mesh (http://www.ats-bm.com/ls/wheel/MESH/MESH.htm)

[sLiDewAys]

those are more than vs-xx

[A Spec Products]

luff m1 look great and are fairly priced

Luff only comes in 19's iirc, and are geared at Euro customers looking for the BBS LM knockoff.

Not really. Its only dependent on diameter, width, and color if not standard. You pay more sometimes for offset if you want custom.

You guys need to take a lesson out of Nizzan4u2nv's book. Ultimate real wheel game stepper right here.

Anyhow, he is right, VS XX price is dependant on diameter, width, and color. However, offset doesn't affect price of Work's.

There will be no knockoff of VS-XX that will fit well right off the bat for the lowballer's wallet. Have pride in your car and get something you would be proud of. If that requires saving more money then so be it, don't take short cuts, it always works out better that way.
