Work wheels are one of the best wheels out there...quality, fitment, performance (light weight). What's nice is that they aren't very common for Porsche either, depending upon the model you choose....check out http://www.worksuperwheels.com - you can request the necessary bolt pattern from work for most wheels avail.

As far as Work wheels are concerned, they are some of the highest quality wheels you can get. You can order either the Brombacher styles or the Rezax II style for the Porsches.

If anyone needs any, let me know!

My set of Brombachers were absolutely great. They were light and very high quality.

gt2next, when did you see my car? Those wheels do NOT have BBS stickers on them whatsoever.

I love BBS... but I don't think it's fair to knock Work as a BBS wannabe. They are like the BBS of Japan and many race teams use their wheels.

TUUNER, I have those exact wheels on my M5 as Simon pointed out. Unfortunately, they do not come in a fitment compatible to the Porsches. Perhaps you should inquire about the 19" Brombacher wheel that will be introduced shortly.

In any case, I'll take WORK over HRE any day. Period.

And GOLD is the only way to go!!!

My only gripe with Work is that they make SUV wheels under the Lowenhart name.

Now I'm pretty sure that the quality level is different, but my wheel repair guy was telling me how the rims on those suckers are so soft that he has to be careful with them when putting on tires (bendage).

Lowenhart is not owned by Work, it is owned by the principal of Dazz Motorsport, who also owns Racing Hart.

I seriously doubt Work even makes these wheels. MAYBE (not even sure) they use an outer lip or something like that, but that's about it.

Work wheels are also very strong.

I'm sure we'll see a return to mid-70s " black out trim " replacing all the exterior/interior chrome/aluminum that's in style for these past few years. Everything goes in cycles.

also, I believe most Lowenhart product is now mfg. by Enkei. The first gen Lowenhart/Racing Hart multi-piece stuff from the late 90s/early 2000 was indeed Work product, and much better quality than the current stuff.
