Need some opinions!
Tuesday, January 22, 2008 12:55 PM
Ok there is local guy that wants to trade wheels with me this is what he has:

18"x7.5 same as mine,




This is what I have:





I am kind of undecided, they are a very unique wheel. I like the dish, and the fact that they look a little more "race" than my current shiney ones do.

What do you guys think?

Anybody see these on a cav before?

Thats what I thought at first too, but they are kind of growing on me. I bet they look really cool when they are spinning!

I don't know, I am so confused!

I want some more input!

I'll be the first to say YES! I would in a heartbeat.

Just my opinion, but I've always liked those Tenzos. Plus have you priced those?

Not a fan of them, I like your current ones better.

stick with yours. the circle in the middle of that rim makes that wheel look really small

The circle in the middle is designed to stabalize the rim at high speeds/g loads. Otherwise, no, stick with what you have.

Gut reaction is no, but I start to like the Tenzos the more I imagine them on a Cavy. The inner circle may make them appear smaller, but I think the curved surfaces of the rim compliment the lines of the Cavalier more-so than the entirely straight spokes on your existing. It's definitely not a cut and dry decision though.

I know, I still can not decide completely. I like them but I don't know if I like them enough.

I say do it personally. see if you can just "try them on" to see what they look like on your car.

I still say do it, be nice if you had a more aggressive drop, and granted this doesn't give you the best idea I think they'd grow on you really quick actually on the car-



EDITED, sorry Photobucket went gay on me.

Both sets of wheels suck IMO. But whatever. Do what you want who cares what other people think.

Well, thanks Joe I had decided against them but now that I see that chop it makes me think twice! I am not basing my decision on what others tell me do, I am just really torn between the two and wanted to see what others thought. I will make my own decision. I really want a simpler 5 spoke wheel but funds don't allow me to get new wheels and I came across this chance and thought I would look into it.

This is also my last post of the month, its also the first time since I have been on here that I have used up all of my posts! Yeah!

I will be back.... please give giving some feedback I will be checking!

Thanks!

Even if you want a simpler 5 spoke, I bet those Tenzos weren't cheap and would hold more value if you decide to sell them and purchase what you're looking for.

PM me if you feel the need.

If your car was slammed... or a Honda... those Tenzos would look good.

that inner circle thing kills it for me

if those are more racy in appearance.. I'll hang myself.


the rims you have are fine.. the other ones are too busy
