Name those Wheels!

Can anyone identify the brand name of the wheels in this video? Can't quite seem to make out their logo... Many thanks in advance! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUW9_19P_4E

Probably a similar style. Center caps don't look like Work center caps.

My guess is Venaci Sprit, but the center caps are still not right.

So I just checked out the official Work Wheels website, (specifically the GS2 series page) and if you scroll to the bottom where the gallery pics are, the very last one is of a red 370z with brush silver finish wheels.

It even looks like the same wing as the one in the video and has european plates. However, the owner is a guy named Dennis, not Mario like the youtube video. Maybe the wheels were modified afterwards, which could explain the unidentifiable center caps..

Check for yourselves in the link below.. what do you think? Same car or crazy coincidence?

Figured it out! Zbrah was right. The wheels are Work GS2 series. I went to the Work website and found a photo of a red 370z in their gallery with the same wing, but more importantly, it had the same license plate number as the car in the video.

@cooltoy: The center caps threw me for a loop too. After making the connection with the license plate, I noticed theres a website printed in fine print on the plate in the video, so I went there and it's of a German tuning company called "TC Concepts." They must have done paint work to the wheels and substituted the WORK center caps with their own brand as it looks similar to the logo on their site.

Thanks for the help guys!!

They're work Gs-2s rebranded as Venaci. They got into some trouble so Venaci is no longer existing.

Thats a Venaci which was a brand owned by VIPStatus/AJ_cket when they were into wheels. Work private labeled for them. Car on video sold by the owner who now drives a bmw. The wing on that Z is pretty light but I could not get over the poles. Would have been better if they used real brackets.
