What do you think of these rims????



So how do you think they would look on a TL-S, and do you think they look classy or elegant or do they cheapen the looks of the car? I think they look pretty good, but some friends I have asked said they look like they belong more on a Civic or Accord than on a TL.

They are Dazz Matiz's and I would prob go with an 18 inch in the Machine finish, not Chrome for my Aegean Blue ride. Thanx in advance

I think their alright.

You will get much respect from the general population for Dazz Matiz's.

I like them. I think you can get similar styles that look better. But I do liek them.

Heres a pic of my CL-S with those same rims in 19". In my opinion 18's are too small for a TL and a CL. But everybody has different tastes.

Holy shit! Where the fuck did you come from!

Your car is sooo tight. You just totally changed my opinion on those wheels... that picture is hot!

Ronin: Yea the Axis Se7ens are tight. But IMO... the 3-piece version looks like absolute shit! lol oh well.

Yeah in 19 they look TIGHT on that black CLS.

In 18s they look TIGHT on that silver TL.

I think the TL looks better with a wider selection of rims on it. Figures....

By the way, if YOU do like them.

They arent just made for Porsches... I think they are a made to order custom wheel... you should call and confirm.

The rims on the silver TL are 19's. The ones on the white tl may be 18's though.

i have the ground control coilovers. not many companies make coilovers for our cars. apex is backordered indefinitely on the world sport dampers. Progress doesnt make any type of suspension either. However i called them and they said they do have a design for the 98+ accords, he just didnt know if and when they'd release it.

Sure those rims are nice, but riding on 35 low profile tires will make the ride like as if you are riding a freaking train, with my 45 and I feel each bump in the road, the steering is more sensitive then ever before...

How is your ride?

I was quoted 3800-3900 for 19's with rubber. Are you running a 225/35 or a 235/35?? Any problems with rubbing??

no the rims arent bent at all, must be the picture.

the ride isnt that bad. its stiffer than stock but nothing to complain about in my opinion. i used ground control coilovers. as for being a baller....nope, its just called saving money.

as for the KOD meet on saturday. im not sure yet, i'll let you know if i'm going.
