New Work Varianza Wheels on CLK 500 [pics]

i finally got my new set of Work Varianza t1s wheels in diamond cut for my w209 CLK. I got them wrapped in Pirelli PZero Nero M+S tires. Took some quick pics of them...

They are 18 x 8.5 - 225/40/ZR18 in the front & 18 x 9.5 - 255/35/ZR 18 in the rear [3.5" Lip

]

Im going to lower them on H&R springs soon..

Comments welcome..

If you have to ask how much they are, you can't afford them, as they say. I bet they were a *****load of money! (They do look awesome, though!)

Nice wheels....but I'm prejudiced since I have a set coming soon.

Should have gotten 19, those look kinda small. Still nice though.

Damn...I am looking to get some custom wheels that look almost exactly like that. I am pondering between 19's or 20's plus 1" drop with h&r springs. What do you guys think? PLEASE post some pics after the drop!!!

Those wheels are SWEET!!! I am in the market for some tires and am considering the Prielli P-Zero Nero, how are you liking them? Do they last?

You can get the varianza's in 19's for around 3200-3400/set. I know cause I priced them out. I almost pulled the trigger awhile back. I bet the 18's are around 2400-2800.

I should have but instead made the mistake of ordering forgestars. Bad quality control, ****ty customer service, and now still waiting 13 weeks later. Should have gone with my gut.
