The only similarity I see is the spoke count. Look closer at the spoke details and you'll see the difference. Especially if you compare the edge of each spokes, more detailed and reinforced on the works, vs. the clean/simple edge of the concept one. Both are great looking wheels!

3,300$ for 20 inch JDM wheels are you serious? That price is very reasonable. You're driving a G37 not a Civic!

Expensive is base on income. With that said... I find these a good price for WORK wheels. My HREs were $6k+. Now if you want a $1000 set of knock-offs good luck on the long term.

Although I agree with your statement, $3300 for a half cast and half forged wheel...no thanks! I love the look of some Work wheels and almost pulled the trigger on a set until I learned that it's not a full forged wheel. That's where I begin to have issues with them.

Most of jdm wheels are cast face and forged barrels. Im just surprised that the price is really cheap for brand new set of wheels.

Not all work wheels are cast center. Equip series are full forged.

Yes forged are better but a well built, tested WORK cast 2 piece Wheel are far better, stronger and more reliable than most of the so called full forged wheels in the market.
