Just had a quick question about wheel brands since I know next to nothing about wheels and brands!

How is the reputation of Tenzo Racing Sports? Are they a good (or at least decent) brand? I know they're no Volk Racing, but I don't have the money to put $500/wheel down. I'm looking for something around the $200/wheel price range, but I also don't want to get garbage. I like the DC-6 V2 wheels: Pic, the DC-5 V2: Pic and the GF-7: Pic

Also, how's Zinik as far as brands go? They've got a couple of wheels I was interested in too, but can't find much on the web about them as a brand name.

Thanks!

never heard of Zinik? tenzo is an alrite company. but i have been looking around and you can find better quality wheels out there. I have SSR wheels and think they are amazing. i couldn't complain with them. i did some research before i bought them but if you do the same then you will be happier than just settling.

Thanks for the reply! SSR does have some really nice wheels, except they're way out of my price range. The cheapest 18" wheel that I can find from them on tirerack.com is $350. I'm looking for wheels in the low 200 dollar range. I think the very most I could afford to go is $250/wheel, and that's pushing it!

Unfortunately, "going big" on wheels is just too expensive for what my budget would allow. There're lots of nice looking wheels in the low to mid $200 range, I'm just looking for decent/good brands in that price range. Don't get me wrong, I'd love to be able to drop more money on it, but it's just not feasible
