My next mod will be for a set of wheels. I took some time last night at the meet to look around and check out what style of wheel everyone was riding on and for the most part it looked like gun metal with a nice polish lip especially on the tC's. I have been searching for wheels for over a month and have come up with these two choices. One is gun metal with a nice 2"polished lip which looks awesome on the tC's and a full chrome wheel with a two 2" lip. I know everyone has their own opinion on what looks good so tell me what you think might look good on MY tC based on how it is set up. Thanks and happy voting.

I say the Zinik. You're right most of the tC's are gunmetal with a polished lip. Be different.

I like the first one better, but another good choice would be the Konig Imagine in the Opal finish which I think would be a good contrast with the color of your Tc -- take a look -- www.tires.com or www.konigwheels.com

ive seen the daytonas in person. they look pretty nice, my only complaint is that the face of the rims actually protrudes almost .25 inches from the edge of the lip......i like the ziniks, and im not a big fan of chrome, both would look nice.

I think I am liking the zinik's. Like Bryan said it would be different and it would look good. I like the style of that rim.

Go for the Zinik's, you know thats what you wanted in the first place!!!!!They will look awesome on your ride Scott...But I know Melissa would be happier if you went with the Exel's cause they are cheaper...

Hey Scott do you have any side view pictures of your tC?? post one here and I'll photoshop both wheels so you can see what they look like on your ride.

That would be great!

This is the best one I have. Let me know if you need something better and I will get you one tomorrow when I have my camera. I was unable to find a pic of the wheels without an angle shot. Let me know.
