What's up SL I'm on the search for a nice set of rims to go with my FM and I think I've decided to go with an all black look...what do you guys think of these ones? They are TENZO Type-M 18x8 and they go for $1,303 with the NITTO's NT 555! Anyone rockin' them?

they will be going on here with a black powder coated FIG grill..let me know...(oh by the way I'm aware a lot of people on here do not like stickers, but I do so let's keep those comments away. Everyone is entitled to their opinion) stick with the rims......any suggestions as far wheels go are WELCOMED (within the same price range would be great)!

thanks for watching!

with the helpful input of some fellow SLers i decided to go a different route...these are the ones...yet i haven't seen them anywhere.....y is that?

take off the stickers...
















nah jk. i think it would look good. maybe even a bronze color aswell. never a fan of black on FM but if you like it then why not?

You see I really like that rim but I don't know how they would look on it

i would say start finding some FM tC's with ALL black rims and get some thoughts on it. I personally like a dark silver with FM. Of course, its all IMO.

I think they would look sick on ur car !

I say go for it

If you're going with an all dark look why not get your stickers made in FM or similar color? You'll have the best of both worlds IMHO; you'll still have your stickers and the nay-sayers really won't be able to see them. Can anybody say 'ghosted'?

Just remember that websites use 20"+ rims on their sites. So the size you may end up with will not be that concave. I'm not trying to rain on your parade, I'm just throwing that out there. GL.

its not the fact that they'd be 20"+ its the fact that concave wheels need extremely low offsets (0 or negative) and this will not happen with the tc. keep that in mind, look around here there are some cars that have it and honestly it doesn't look very good

I love the rims, but i am not sure how i feel about them with your paint??? Good luck

where in LI u from? I vote no on the rims... nebster knows his crap..

well, maybe, your car is darked out anyways. I see/guess thats what your going for anyway, so, go ahead

its not the fact that they'd be 20"+ its the fact that concave wheels need extremely low offsets (0 or negative) and this will not happen with the tc. keep that in mind, look around here there are some cars that have it and honestly it doesn't look very good

I understand..you see I'm not really familiar with wheel fitting, offsets etc. i just really like the way those look..are there any rims similar to that would fit on a tC? I guess if i can't have that affect of "concave" i wouldn't care if they were black, bronze or gold...any suggestions on specific models....
thanks for your help nebster :bow: :bow: :bow:

im from westbury right by the "Source Mall".. smilezdc

hahah i like the way you're thinking...but yeah I guess 18's won't look anything like the ones on the pic...it's just annoying on how deceiving a picture can be!!!

thanks for your help!

ahhh ... have u gotten caught without ur front plates yet?

ahhh ... have u gotten caught without ur front plates yet?

lol no not yet...it's been 3 years...usually people ask about the windshield but that doesn't give me any trouble either...cops in nassau don't give a ____...when i used to go to queens college i used to get stared down by the cops in my old car and i got pulled over once or twice but if you're nice to them they just tell you to take it off..that's all.

I LOVEE these wheels :love: :love: :love: :love:

http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh161/djgaberamos/37667_1.jpg

any idea where i could find them??

never mind i just bumped into their site but they aren't available for another 2 weeks :(

idk, but for some reason i dont like them

I think made up my mind these would be ittttttttt....shouldn't have a problem with these right nebster? They are Axis Halo 18x8.5 with a +35mm offset....sickk tell me not?

http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh161/djgaberamos/halo_gold.jpg

i personally love those, dont care what anyone says

How could anyone NOT like them?????

:ponder:

the brand, some ppl dont like the brand

AXIS????? holy chittt i actually thought they were one of the best out there...ahhaha goes to show how much I know about tuner wheels..... in any way they look ridicilousssssss!!!

yeah i love axis wheels, what theyve been in buisness since 97' i think.

I see that you're pretty crazy with photoshop, you think those would look good on a FM?

maybe, i need matching angles, and possibly a doner vehicle

yeah i hear ya in about 7 hrs I'll be getting her back from the dealer...(took her away for 9 days) i should be able to take a side angle shot and find some more pics of those rims...and if you could still do it that'd be dope... :bow:

yeah i have been searching, and so far havnt found them mounted on any cars, except from the site, but they arent the right color and they are close up shots.

i wont use manufactures pics, it's not my style, plus they look way to fake like thta....

dammm so no one has those???????? wowwww never thought I'd pick such unique wheels lolll :rofl:

lol, maybe youll be the first with them on a tC

excellent I love the way that sounds!!! 8) 8) 8) 8)

haha there ya go

I think I'm going to knock out for a little and then go pick her up and take some pics and look for rim pix as well....hopefully we'll be able to figure out how she's going to look..... :nails: :nails: :nails:

i went through 56 pages and i could find them on any vehicle

F#$% that blowsssss.....I guess I'm going to have to go with my gut instinct. I KNOW they are going to look insane!!! :crazy:

i think they will loook great, i actually thought about getting the gravity's(look the same) but i wen with my current ones, and im happy. just og with your gut, and be different from other ppl

yeah i like different a lot!!! by the way i like what you've done with your car....

lol are there enough pix of it online yet?...or is it getting there lol jp

hahah thanks, yeah i have tons of pics lol

one more question....is a +35mm offset going to make it flush, or would I have to add spacers?

it would make it like mine, wich is pretty flush

That's sickkkk...by the way nice "TRD" drop :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

lol thanks and why do you laugh haha

You posted a photoshopped pic of your TRD drop on a previous thread and just by looking at it i started laughing....talk about misleading!!! lol

oh lol, yeah the 1st one was fake, but the 2nd one like it was the actual drop...


this is more like it

http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/dd310/scion_jon1/IMG_3104.jpg

yeah i saw the rest of the real ones on that post...advertising for Bud Light i see!

would the mods lock this for going out of subject? :lalala:

lols

and naw why would they, its your thread lolz

I don't know man i see them locking up threads left and right bc they either go off topic or they turn retarted....so i wouldn't know if this got off topic..lol

talk about a newb huh?

lols, well we are talking about your car and what wheels would look like hahaha

hahah very true......so how about them Halo's huh?

lol i think they are saweet, and def would bring out the gold flake in flint mica

do you know of any sites that have better prices than the rest? Or do they all go for $290 a piece?

i think thats the going cost, maybe able to find a site that sell's them slightly cheaper idk

yeah so far i only got wheelfire.com but i got a hook up and i'm probably going to get the tires seperately...

thanks for all your help john... :bow:

off to bed i go
