Post Little Help...

Guys currently I have been waiting for my 19's going on 45 days now. The peopel at the rim shop are being considerate though. Today the biggest news came in this form of possibly bad news and good news and I want eveyone's opinion on this especially the experts up in here.

I had originally ordered the 19 x 8 DazzMatiz in silver and today they give me a call saying that they spoke with DazzMotorsports and unfortunately say that they do not make this rim in the lug diameter or TL pattern some **** like that. What can be done is to have it drilled for it to fit a 2001 TL. The guy suggested to not do this and I agree.

Now the good news (hopefully) we spoke and they can get me the the Dronell Type 5 which is identical except it exposes the lugs for the same price $650 each in 19 (3-piece) money wise its not bad deal but this is what I'm not sure about...

According to them they said that I'll be upgrading in wheel quality becuase the Dazz is manufactured here in the U.S. and the Dronell is manufactured in Japan. Overall a stronger wheel and quality. He even threw in the crystal lugs for free...

So their you have it, if anyone can be so kind on giving me their thoughts and to confirm previous paragraph I would appreciate it.

Thanks...

Thats odd about what they said about the Dazz not being available for the TL, since AC on this board had them in 18's. It could be the fact that it was 19's instead of 18's.

As for the Dronells I think those are good wheels as well, I don't think you could go wrong with Dronells.

Tough to say.

Go with the Dronells those are also some nice looking wheels and like you said they look about the same and for about the same price plus you get a set of crystal lugs free.

Well today I went to the rim shop and we all tried clearing this
sh!t up. Dazz does make it for the TL but something is going on from the manufacture in Japan that supposely this wheel is going to be difficult in getting. I really don't want to get into it...

Anyway the choices now are leaning towards the Dronell or the Lowenharts B5's like the ones that Saberatic has.

3point a picture of the car you can use any pic from the gallery as long as its a second genaration TL.

A picture of the wheel...well let me give you a couple of websites so you can determine which pic would be best to photo shop.

3point I really appreciate it, thanks.....
