Default Anyone have wheels made by Exel?

Hey guys, I am looking to change my wheels, and I came across some designs that I like and they were made by a brand called Exel. Does any of you guys know about this brand? and does anyone use it on their tC? Are there any problems with their product that I should pay special attention to? And lastly, would you recommend their product? Sorry about all those questions, but help would be greatly appriciated Thanks in advance!

Exl wheels are one of the lowest end wheel's. I wouldnt recommend them at all.

That is what I have heard as well. I have never personally dealt with these wheels but that is just things I have heard from the various forums I've been on.

I decided a while ago to try out those rims. I had exel wheels (racing hart c5 replicas) on my del sol for a lil over 6 months. I had at least a dent on three of the rims. This was of course in the terrible pot-holed ridden city of angels but u can only avoid so many. I wouldn't recommend them unless u've got a tight budget and u're desperate for rims. In terms of looks: decent, quality: terrible, weight: pretty heavy.

I had Exel TZ-10s initially. While I had no problems w/ them, they did balance nicely, but were heavy.

FYI, for some quality wheels at great prices for your tC, check out our site at: http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=DJ1&...eels/index.jsp. If you see something you like and need more information or want to place an order, feel free to give me a call. If ordering on-line, feel free to enter my name at the end of the order in the "Previous Contacts" area and I will be glad to keep an eye on your order as it processes!
