Welcome to the board! Work is one of my favorite wheels' brand.

I know we IS-F owners keep asking about fitment and offsets due to our BBK, so I decided to send an email to Jim (Work) back in April and here is his answer, it may help some people:

"Dear Juan,

Thank you for your inquiry and interest in WORK Wheels.

For 20”Schwert SC1 or GS1 for IS-F, below is our suggested specification.

Schwert SC1 –

Front: 20 X 9.0 +35 A-Disk
Rear: 20 X 10.0 +35 A-Disk

Gnosis GS1 –

Front: 20 X 9.0 +35 A-Disk
Rear: 20 X 10.0 +35 A-Disk

The 9.5 / 10.5 setup is beyond our recommendation, not to say we can’t build the specs, but you will need to let us know what offset you like to run.

Unfortunately we don't sell directly to the public. Please check with anyone of our Authorized WORK Dealers for competitive price quotation and ordering.

Welcome to CL.
Ice350, please shoot me a PM if you'd like regarding your issue

I agree, the VS-KF is one of my favorites...I love the Burning Black (BKB) Finish in particular

Actually, there is

They recently released the Equip E series, specifically the WORK Equip E05 and the WORK Equip E10:

Will you be offering a true "Black chrome" finish for the lip in the future?

Thanks
The Black Anodized Lip finish is one of the custom lip options we have

Besides Black, we can also do Red, Blue, and Brown

These lip finishes can be done on 2 piece + 3 piece WORK Wheels

As far as "Black Chrome" goes for the lip specifically, currently it is not an offered option. Perhaps in the future they may expand the lip options but it is hard to say.

At the moment we have WORK Wheels t shirts but no baseball caps

Baseball caps or headwear is something we have considered and will most likely release in the future

Good to hear, although I'd try to avoid potholes whenever possible haha

Please PM me dsouth regarding stickers

Thank you Juanca

As many of you are familiar if you have contacted us previously, we are more than happy to help regarding fitments and brake clearances

Please also feel free to contact any WORK Wheels Authorized Dealer for assistance as well

Thank You
Zeb
User zebt66 contacted me with this, and I figured it is a common question so I will answer it here as well

(Listed from least to most brake clearance)

O Disk (Deep Rim) - Maximizes lip size, least amount of brake clearance
A Disk (Standard) - Standard brake clearance
L Disk (Big Caliper) - Big caliper clearance, but has less clearance than R
R Disk (Big Caliper) - Big caliper clearance, more than L
T Disk (Big Caliper) - Big caliper clearance, more than R

As you gain brake clearance, you will sacrifice lip size, but the good thing is we can tell you exactly what lip size you will get with varying combinations.

With that being said, please always check with a WORK Authorized Dealer or with us and we can help to verify brake clearances.

Also keep in mind that brake clearance differs among varying wheels, and that brake clearance (for multipiece wheels) does not change with varying offsets.

WORK,

What is the waiting time for a set of wheels? Can you list some dealers from Canada?

Thanks,

Thanks,
Typical lead time for custom multipiece wheels are approximately ~8-10 weeks

Keep in mind that for all multipiece orders, the wheels are custom built to order in Japan

With any special order, it might extend beyond the approximated lead time, or sometimes be faster

We have varying ways to ensure that you are aware ahead of time and also during your order, please contact a WORK Authorized Dealer for more info

As far as Canada goes, we are the USA representative for WORK Wheels so our dealers are all based in the US

Any order related questions should be specifically directed to the dealer that you ordered through

Please check with the dealer that you ordered through

Yes, in the month of August, there is a week of holiday, which in turn affected the number of vessels leaving Japan

Therefore based on the earliest vessel that could be scheduled to leave Japan puts the approximate arrival date at ~September 10th

Keep in mind that often times since the wheels are coming from another country, there a unforseen variables that might extend the process, such as vessel scheduling as in this case, or US Customs inspections, etc

Thanks for your patience, feel free to PM me if you have further questions Lenny

I have Euroline FE's and they are fabulous.

If I win the lottery those new Equips are at the top of my list.

That and a set of huge breaks.
