Here is how my car looked when I bought my 20's staggered, tires were too chunky...







Here it is with smaller tires and dropped!...Doesn't look too bad..










I traded these wheels for these HP 19 inch wheels...I changed the look...but still was not satisfied...









So finally I decided to go on a mission to not spend any money at all and get some crazy looking rims...I traded my stock TL rims for these 20 inch HP rims..





But i decided the same day that these would not look crazy enough...so I went on another mission for some wheels...and found someone that wanted to trade for these 20's....So here is how my car looks now...the specs on these wheels are as follows. Falken rims 19 x 10 all around with 245/35/19 tires....I think it is a very aggressive look and not many people have been able to pull it off...So tell me what you guys think...Should I keep them....or go on another mission to trade for other wheels..





















Also I took all these pics with my camera phone so forgive me for the shitty pics....maybe I will invest in a camera one day...but for now I prefer to spend the extra cash on my car.

i think you should stop getting black wheels, cant really see the wheel

Papayon

Maybe its the camera....

No, Craig's right. Everyone who posts their cars w/ black wheels has the same result.

Papayon

I will keep it in mind the next time I get wheels...I kind of liked the blacked out look...but oh well

i can see them just fine.....you guys need new eyes.......the 20in hp wheel looks better imo

Papayon

They were nice but my car would have looked too high...the tires were real chunky....they were 255/35/20....I would have been rubbin like crazy!

Kro

how bout fixing your quarter tints at some point before buying your 10th set of wheels? latest wheels look mad silly btw. sorry

Papayon

Wow....your gonna nitpick at that...whatever...I think the rims look sick... Thats my opinion...to each their own....

rastaracer

Papayon

+1 to each their own, as long as you like it then who cares what anyone else thinks? Only think I'd do is go a little lower

I think they look okay. Just needs a little more drop

Papayon

Thanks. I wont go any lower though...i dont want to kill the ride.

I applaud your efforts to find new wheels that you're happy with, but I don't think I've liked any of the wheels your TL has rocked. Just my of course. Do whatever makes you happy man!

craigtl35

im 2 inches off the ground and my ride is fine, 20's kill the ride more than anything,
edit:and heavy wheels in general

JDMJNKY

I actually think it looks good/best w/ the HP 19's just My opinion. Still nice setup.

Papayon

Thanks!...everyone has different taste...and a diff budget....the only time i spent money were on the first set...after that i have just been swapping..

Papayon

Good to know..

Papayon

My previous pics were taken with a camera phone...thats why the car didnt look so great here.....so i took one with my Samsung 12 megapixle camera....i think u can finally see the wheel a little better...or should i get rid of these wheels....

VQPower37

i personally think ur last set of wheels look the best. maybe a little more of a drop will set it off, but i dont think its absolutely necessary

Maybe a set of 20" Bronze or Black Volk TE37 would look nice......

It looks good! Must be a pain to keep clean huh?

Papayon

Thanks....yes it is a total bitch to keep clean....little rain and im done!

I think if you were slammed they would look alot better. It doesn't look bad as is, but just not my cup o' tea.

Black on black is definitely hard to pull off. I think they all look similar, being that the lip makes them look smaller than they are. Still nice though, don't get me wrong, just would look more "right" with a good drop (IMO)...but then again, your most recent set of wheels look like you would have to have the rear fender rolled and maybe even pulled to lower the car.


PS...I'm biased about the black thing...

Papayon

Yup...black on black is tough to pull of...god knows i have tried...i already got a hold of some other wheels that are not black...well see how they look..but i really like the way yours look....you pulled it off real nicely

Thanks man...very much.
Keep us posted on the new ones!

I think I like the first set of wheels the best. Undecided on the aggressive fitment at that height, it's something I'm trying to decide for myself right now.

Great job on keeping the NBP clean though!

OP - ditch those black wheels. imo none of the ones you picked look any better - maybe the 2nd but that's really reaching...rockstar143's car is the only black on black ive seen that looks bitchin.

Papayon

I agree his car looks dope in picture and in person. Im workin with some other wheels that are not black ....i should have them on by next week....

Blazing GT

meh on the black wheels

gsantos79

what are you dropped on?

sixsixfour

great! sorry man, i didnt mean to rag on you. i think your car would look sick with the right wheels.

u should deff tint those rear sidemarkers, the red throws everything off

iTrader: (1)

with the right wheels the TL looks dope.
Rockstar got it right!!!

what tips are you rockin?

Papayon

Thats cool...i dont get hurt easily, the wheels I got are completely different and will definitely change things.

I agree, I want to get the type S rear side markers.

There is a thread already out there for the tips that I got.

Def recommend!...Worth the price!

I am dropped on H & R Springs, 1'4 in the front and 1'3 in the rear.

Papayon, it sounds like an expensive venture (going back and forth), but looks good!
