Work Emotion CR Kiwami

Work has tweaked their classic Work Emotion CR once again with a new model called the Work Emotion CR Kiwami. They changed the spoke design and made it more concave, this wheel is looking awesome. I’m not sure when they’ll be available for sale stateside but I’ll keep everyone posted.

Work has added Matte-Black to the new Work Emotion CR Kiwami color lineup. I really like the little detail they did on the spokes to differentiate the new CE Kiwami from previous Emotion CR models.

Go Ginormous or GTFO, 18×10.5s GD Impreza

There has been a lot of chat out there about a certain set of new fender flares that are on the market. I get a lot of questions about what wheels are available in the correct sizes. A few months back I compiled a list of 18×10.5s and it’s about time I shared it with everyone.

The sweet spot is 18×10.5 +15mm with a 295/30/18, coilovers and some camber. Go Ginormous or GTFO.

This first post will be all 1 piece wheels that clear the STi Brembos, the 2/3 piece article will come later once we know exactly how aggressive we can go with these monster flares Karlton has created.
