luxery or sport rims
Hey guyz, I'm a new gurl on da site and I been snoopin' 'round takin a look @ everyone's rides. I wanna say tite tite!! I first wanted to get a bodykit on my TL, but after lookin 'round, I changed my mind and wanna get springs and rims first. Just wonderin ... what turns heads faster? Luxery or sport rims?

You can never go wrong with a nice clean looking wheel. It makes you car look a lot classier. I personally would never go with a gawdy wheel (bling, bling). IMO I think those kind of wheels make the car look cheesy.

i agree with Thaitea, nothing catches your attention then a cute girl in a TL =D
go with a nice set of clean rims, you can't go wrong with a nice set of rims (RH,Lowenhart,HRE,Alstadt are just a few), and chrome is a plus..

The lowenharts are the dopest. Try to find rims that others don't have. Racing Hart C2'S and C5's are nice and classy but too many Civic and Integra have them. I personally don't want things that will make my car look like a civic or integra...

Who's heads do you want to turn, and is it a good head turn or a gawk head turn?
I think chrome rims with lots of surface area are pretty ghetto, if its got a lot of thin or little spokes, then it looks good chromed, most likely.
Most everyone will look at chrome rims on a car, and think it looks pretty good.
You'll really turn the heads of import enthusiasts, though if you powdercoat them. What color is your TL? If its black, then definiately go with Gunmetal.
Also, having a known established wheel will impress import enthusiasts, Mugen MF-10's, RH C5's, LH LGM's, Volk SE-37K's.
Those are 4 of my favorite rims available.
I would go with 18"s unless you're really into the street/track racing scene.
Hope this helps.
