Ranga whats the offset on those wheels? Im probably getting the Tenzo Cuzcos which are 45 I believe. Just trying to gauge the final appearance.

It's 45... And I'm a bit annoyed at the moment. I can't find my wheel lock for my new lugs and stupid Discount Tire never put it back with my stuff. Ugh.

Nice wheels, a little too Volkswagony / Volvoish for my tastes but nice never the less.

No spacers right? Im going 19 x 8.5 Cuzcos, hoping they will sit a little more flush on the fender.

The wheel look sweet dude. The whole car is pure sex. The only thing I would really recommend is for you to please remove the strips going down the side of the car. If it's not possible the car is still sweet looking. Good job on picking the wheels .

Haha, I agree. I found myself looking more at the pinstripes than the wheel, shaking my fists at the screen. :P

You guys might think I'm crazy but I've always liked pinstripes.

Not really fan of Type M, this style is more for Audi/Subaru.

I do love the Matte Charcoal. Are you replacing the Lugs, the Chrome stands out too much and looks cheap.

i know what you mean bembol. to each his own and i respect that. i had my eyes on these for a while. i've contacted tires23 for a wheel lock but maybe i should think it over and replace the lugs altogether. have any other places that i could check out for new lugs/locks?

Sorry. Billy recommended the Type M's but I told him I saw two Coupes in the GTA that has them so that didn't help.

I've been dealing with Billy since '03 so he hooks me up and the only shop that comes close is, Allen @ simplytire. Give him a shout.
