Look good, I am parital to a black car with gunmetal rims BTW, Exel rims are cheap knock-offs of other rim designs, and are usually of not the highest quality - hence the cheaper price... No first hand experience, but just what I have heard.

if it's all you can afford it's all you can afford. I understand not everyone can spend 2K on rims, etc. Just remember you get what you pay for. You may never run into a problem w/ these, but they may bend on you occasionally (which a good amount of rims will)

If you are going to buy cheap wheels, don't get anything over 17". It'll make them harder to bend, etc.

i love TENZO.. TENZO are great rims that do not bend easy.. I have hit many Pot holes and only 1 got me.. a 2ft hole that i couldnt avoid.. it was either hit it or another car!!!! The dent is on inner part of the rim and is MINOR... I bought my tenzos off Wheelmax for $1400 with performace tires... Thats cheap and a great wheel!

not all knockoff brands are bad quality... i have 18' nakayama phantom GT-Rs (I believe JamzCL has the same rims) on 35 series tires and have hit MANY MANY potholes. They are knockoffs of the SSR GT-1. They haven't even had 1 dent.
