the 1300 maybe from vivid but you can do better, pm some sponsors here and let me just say those can be had for ~1000. and tires you can get for ~100 a pop. so 1500. not as expensive as you originally thought

$1500.. if I could get those for $1500 i'd do it. I paid almost $1,100 for my raze and their not even "name brand"

Sad. I do have the Azenis' which i'm in love with far more than the wheels themselves.


Also, the tC isn't fast, no. But it can be. I've got faith that with more support we can start to have some tC's getting into the low 11's and high 10's. Already got some in the low 12's.

12 is FAST. Anything under 12 is ungodly unsafe for street use. But 12 is as fast as quarter million dollar supercars.


Also I got a bogus criminal speeding ticket. Tell me the tC aint fast!1 73 in 40 100feet from a stoplight. I wish maybe.

dude i've never seen a 10 second tc and when you're spending that much money i'd pay off my other car lol.

you can get those works for 1500..... i know someone here that has done it. its not hard, you just have to talk to people.

and your'e not getting 12's with a supercharger, but i'll get looks and trophies with rims

Ones that tickle your fancy. If you like them alot and they cost alot... save. If your eye catches a Tenzo... buy the tenzo.


I don't want to spend what it takes to get my tC to run 12's but I would love to see the car achieve it. Supercharged, with some work i'd like to run at least a 13 of some sort. Low 13 would be nice. More like high 13 low 14 but anyway.

My girlfriends brother is spending like 14grand putting hydros on his truck, custom frame, link setup, like 4 JL w7's, etc. He and I argue constantly about how unimportant turning heads is. I'd rather have a completely gutted race Supra that the whine of the fuel pump drowns out my brain then have people go "Man, that things nice!" as the grass blades are nestling into my sideskirts.

ok, well don't come crying to me when your wheel breaks when you hit a railroad track too fast or had your rims bend on you.

Do up a tenzo one for giggles. I still like the way they look, i'd buy them anyway. Black with a red pinstripe would be legitimate for my FM..

HMMMM....


Avoid running over railroad tracks yes. Use the part of the street where it gradually goes up level with the tracks, then back down them. Don't go in the dirt and romp over them especially if you're lowered.

haha no bro im not having trouble finding a wheel im having trouble deciding whether or not to do 17s to save me money since i can use my stock tires, i would be saving 400-500 dollars or just go with 18s that look better, but i wont be regretting it in the future.
