last wheel question i promise

I took my car in to get it aligned today and i got to talking about the mechanic about vip style and what not and as it turns out the shop is pretty hooked up with stuff like that. anyway he offered me a great deal on these beautiful work mesh wheels (19x9 +26F, 19x10+24R) the problem is when i got to class today i tried looking up the wheel so i could photoshop it on my car to see how it looked and i could not find it anywhere.


the wheel is a Work Euro-lite EXXE01


whats the story on this wheel? does anyone have any pics of it or am i going to have to go take a pic of them, they are so good looking :smitten:

they look similar too but not exactly like the euroline XR of the same company

Re: last wheel question i promise

if you can't find it online then it probably doesn't exist.

chances are the wheel shop doesn't have a clue of what he's talkin bout.

u better make sure they are the real "work" rather than "Werk" or some knockoff of that nature. Some of these wheels shops talk out of their asses and don't realize how bullsh*t they sound.

Re: last wheel question i promise

basically the EXXE from what i know is the cheaper brand. The only difference is the center cap..it says EXXE but behind the wheel you will see all the familiar work markings.

So in essence you can buy them, then purchase center caps. And there u go, works

For example the WORK SH2 if you buy the EXXE one you can get it cheaper than purchasing the actual SH2.

Thats at least what i see, i been seeing people do group buys on EXXE and not the WORK SH2

Re: last wheel question i promise

whoever it was distributing some of the work eurolines in the US (and I believe parts of europe...?) back then had created the exxe monicker to get the wheels out to a larger range of random vendors... i.e. you could find exxe wheels at some hole-in-the-wall lowrider wheel shop, but they'd have no idea what a "work wheel" was if you asked them
