Description:

It pains me to write this as I need to sell these Work Brombacher wheels. They're brand new and have never had tires put on them. I special ordered them from the factory and waited 4 months to receive them from Japan. Long story short my mechanic measured wrong and they're slightly too wide.... Lesson learned (dont need any keyboard warriors rubbing it in). With that said, they should go to a good home. I'm located in Los Angeles.

Specs:
3 Piece Normal -
Sizes - Rear 18x12 -29 Front 18x10 -3
5x130 hole pattern

Gold center

Asking $3,900 

If you order these now from anywhere else they will take 4-6 months to receive due to covid back orders.

Have you tried getting custom barrels made domestically?

With the specs in the OP, you're going to need an RWB widebody to fit these. The photo of gold works on a car looks like a photo of the Driftworks Promodet 964

exactly what I was thinking. Great looking wheels, too bad they don’t fit anything I have

29 (R) & 3 (F) are those the offsets? If so, "custom" indeed.

Nice wheels – nice price!

I was in the same predicament with my Work Meister S1 3P wheels. I didn't have the fitment I wanted but I was able to get lips and barrels made to spec from VR wheels and dial in the fitment perfectly. They take a bit (weeks not months) but well worth it in the end if you want to keep the wheels.

vrwheels.com, you can purchase individual barrels and lips. Just buy the right size this time. If the you are too wide, but the offset is good, just grab smaller lips go to https://vrwheels.com/pages/how-to-measure to see how to measure the lips /barrels to get the correct ones.

based on the spec of your wheel from work: https://www.workwheelsusa.com/produc...ry/brombacher/ then open up the pdf sizing chart at the bottom of the page: https://www.workwheelsusa.com/wp-con...ZING-CHART.pdf

Shows me that you have :

FRONT: 18x10 wheels -3 offset, which breaks down to Standard A disk face (hope they clear the calipers, test fit to see if the faces hit the calipers, if not, you can re barrel and re lip them. Chart shows 112 mm lip (4.41 inch) which equals a 4 inch lip (measurement is from the sealing side to the inside of the bead.) which means you have a 6 inch barrel up front. If your backspacing is good ( nothing hits the caliper or suspension with a tire mounted) you can just get a new lip for the front and they go by the 1/2 inch, so 3 1/2 inch lip, 3 inch lip, etc.

REAR: 18x12 wheels -20 offset which breaks down to Standard A disk face (should be no problem in the rear). Chart shows 163 mm lip (6.42 inch) which again equals 6 inch lip measurement, which leaves you with 6 inch barrels.

It is very confusing, and it took me almost 6 months of wheel measurements, and tire sizing to dial in the perfect fitment on my 370Z, only to have it totalled before I could mount the wheels. Now i get to do it all over again to see if i can dial them in on my new to me '15 Macan.
