Are these wheels good?
I haven't heard of this brand (Exel), but they seem to have a few good looking styles and on this site there are some good deals. any experiences with the brand or with this store?

Sure, Enkei, Advan, 5Zigen would be nice, but I'm on a limited budget here.. 
Most of these run about $500-$600 a set, but compared to ~$2000 a set for the brand name ones, I guess it's worth a look.
I"m looking at:
Advan Kruezer X replica
and these...looks familiar but dunno what they're replica's of:

look at this site
it's located in Vancouver. they got some pretty cheap rims.
personally i like this one the most
I ring them to check the price for that wheel.... it's only 170 CDN each wheel.
However, they dun have stock for that style rite now. but i think it's a pretty good deal.

I was actually looking at those wheels before. Almost bought them instead of the ones I have now but decided to go with OEM look on my first mod car. I would say, if u just wanna ride them normally on the streets without racing, they'd be ok. Just wouldnt want to take them to races or doing corners at 100mph with them, they'll probably crack/bend real easy.
Personally I think the NEX-O PX-5 18s will look evils on the TSX

Yeah that was what I was worried about...the quality of these wheels... Thanks for pointing to the clubrsx board, they had tons of info...

Which wheels did you end up getting, kaikai?
btw, the guy in your avatar (which I'm assuming is you) looks like a Korean friend I had in college.

you get what you pay for.
all cast wheels are risky for devoloping cracks - but some companies are not as good as others.
i would rather buy an enkei or racing hart over an exel wheel any day.
