Why don't you compare apples to apples? The work VS-XX is related to the Work Euroline XR's..a mesh design which I think look better than the VS-XX,

here's a pic


Those other wheels you chose are a 10-spoke even design like the CE-28's and the iForged Imolas,



So choose which style you like better, THEN go from there...

Default Mesh = Aggressive!

Go Mesh whatever you do. The XX's are nice, but I prefer a mesh 8 design instead like the Volk SF-Winnings, BBS RS-GT, or 360 Forged Mesh 8.

IMO the more 'open' design of a mesh 8 vs. a mesh 10 gives an even more aggressive mesh look.

Check out these pics, they are my IS350 w/ Volk SF-Winnings. An 8 spoke Mesh design.







IMO these give the IS a more aggressive look then any other wheel design period. Just IMO of course

Here's an example of a Mesh 8 design vs. a Mesh 8 design. IMO the more 'openness' of the mesh 8 gives a meaner/more aggressive look:

360 Forged Mesh 8


360 Forged Mesh 10



Mesh 8 Style FTW!

DAMN!!! Now I'm confused and I'm not even the person buying the rims.

But the Mesh 8 will look sick on an IS as well, especially in matte black. Also, if he went with Mesh 8, I'm certain he will be the only IS owner with those on. 360Forged are not cheap rims, there known as the "diamond center".

I have to disagree with you (IMO) about the more "openess" the more aggressive the wheels look. I have CSL (OEM) on my M3, I didn't find them aggressive at all. I find fat lips to look more aggressive. What I did noticed about the "more openess", they are easier to clean. And if you have BBK the more attractive they look behind the wheel as well - you can actually see 'em.

For example (pic of my E63 wheel/brake)...you can see the brake somewhat but not as well as the "openess" of the mesh.

Thanks for the reply. I was actually looking into some Volks too but didnt really see anything I liked. Plus I was rocking LE-37's for a while on my Rsx and wanted to go with something different.

10 Mesh looks better IMO.
