Work Maximer F2 wheels, 18x9" +15 two piece cast wheel. The center disk is a "high" disk setup to clear big caliper cars, and has a 85mm lip.
The wheel is a perfect fitment for S14 applications, as well as S13 with body modifications.
The center disk is a machined silver finish with a nice thick clearcoat; lip is polished.
Asking $1450 shipped. Price is somewhat negotiable as I need to sell ASAP due to my own mistake.
[email protected] or PM me for details.

these are some rare works wheels...with works ring the lip part and sterns center part the spokes. i have a pair with the same size and everything..but these wheels never been produce because sterns went out of business and sold the product to work, work never put it in the market. thats why theyre rare blackmarket wheels

heh you guys are hillarious.
Here's the deal:
These wheels were manufactured by Work, originally for Stern. Stern has since been out of business for over 4 years because of bankruptcy and Work recently offered these wheels as the “Maximer F2” to get rid of their current stock of wheels from their now-defunct contract with Stern. I believe these were the Stern Beast, or something equivilant. The wheels even come with center caps that say "Stern" on them.
That's why they are not listed on Work's website; in fact MANY of Work's older wheels like the Euroline N and Euroline D are still available, you JUST HAVE TO ASK Work Japan to make them.
These wheels are not "black market"; they were offered to Work Distributers (5ZIgen is one of them) as a special deal (they were initially offered last summer but they did the same offer again and lowered the price substantially) and I had purchased a set for my Q45. But now I am in the process of selling my Q45 and I can no longer run these wheels (as I will not run 18" wheels on my S13), so I have ot sell it.
I made the mistake of buying these wheels when I already did not want to keep my 2nd car...
To recap:
-Work does contract work for other wheel "manufacturers".
-Stern had their wheels made by Work.
-Stern has since been out of business.
-As part of bankruptcy ruling, Work can sell wheels under their own brand name but not as "Stern", and so they offer these wheels as "Maximer F2".
If you doubt the authenticity of these wheels, I'll post a pic later that shows 1) it is made by Work, and 2) the date of manufacture. IIRC it was May 12th, 2004.

Alex,
Do you know if there are any still available, especially in 18X10's? with a +25 offset? I would get yours, but I want 18X10's for the rear. I want to run a wide tire in the rear. Let me know.

I dont know what is left of the stock offer; I doubt any more center disks are left.
