Wheel identification- Work ???

PCx188 · 06-19-2008, 12:51 AM

On my MR2 i have Work Rims. Nobody seems to know what kind they are! They are 16x8 rear and 16x7.5 front.

If anybody can tell me what kind of Work Rims these are....you would truly be a genius!

dunno, but they are sexy

I just like the engrish.

That centre cap was discussed in another post. I don't think anyone realized it was a Work wheel though. You can see the tag inside your wheel shows it is. There seems to be an endless variety of styles and variations of Japanese wheels from the early '90's.

yeah those are definitly early work wheels...keep those things clean cuz if you ever decide to sell you could probably get a good amount for em

PCx188 · 06-19-2008, 03:55 PM

nice. but i wouldnt even know what to call them if i did decide to sell'em. LOL. thanks for looking.

My bet is on Work Ewing III.
Sorry, I should've known in the first thread.

PCx188 · 06-25-2008, 03:15 PM

PCx188 · 06-25-2008, 03:18 PM

its funny, i cant even make out what the gold lettering says in the center cap of my wheels! does it say STOLZ? STILZ? SOILZ?

Ku-sama · 06-25-2008, 04:06 PM

SWLZ?

EL PAALO · 06-25-2008, 05:21 PM

no, that's the original version of the ewing 3. you have the 2nd version.

Are they supposed to be called E-WING or Ewing as in Patrick from the NY Knicks?

EL PAALO · 08-22-2008, 12:11 PM

Usually see it as Ewing, but I assume it's pronounced E-wing.
