Thinking about trading up the lexions...what do you guys think?

[IMG][/IMG]

 

those are screaming "i'm hard to clean"
meh

 

HRE = Baller
they remind me of BBS LM's ..

 

Those wheels are nice but they will be a biatch to clean just like any mesh rims. Are u thinking of staying with 19's or going 20's?

 

No... HRE's are like BMWs... they're ugly, and overpriced
Keep yours... much better!

 

Overpriced yes....but NOT ugly

 

Yeah, they are deff not ugly! lol

ed, these are actually 18x8.5's....I'm going down a notch! lol

 

Go with those new rims, but if possible, get them in 19". I'm generally a much bigger fan of mag style rims like the ones that are on your car now than I am of the BBS style, but these new rims will give your car a little more flare and attention. The ones you have now are just kind of normal looking. Not trying to offend or anything; what I'm saying is these new ones will just look a lot better.

 

I really don't want anymore attention to be honest...ask anyone thats been in my car lol If you drive ANYWHERE, people just STARE at the whip. I'm not talking about a quick glance and a thumbs up, i'm talking "i'm so going to steal your wheels once you park" lol Thats kinda how you know you bought the right wheels I always tease my friend when we drive somewhere..."See, my car doesn't make a SOUND and i still break more necks than your pocket rocket"

I was just thinking of going 18's for performance...plus they only weigh like 17lbs each or something

 

I've read this in a few of your posts, is it because of the part of town you live in or what? I have a modded TL on 20's and sure I get my own share of looks. But never that I wanna steal your car look. Your ride looks good but do you have a drop or anything other than rims? Ours cars are nice, but they are fairly ordinary......I see atleast 20 a day.

 

Its mainly the wheels as i've never gotten looks like that with the stock 17's....ever since i put those on...er...its wierd. I guess shiney things attract people lol

 

Keep yours, they look much better

 

Don't get them in 18's it will look too small. My 19 inch mesh wheels at times look a tiny bit small.

 

Naw if you gonna do HRE's 19's or better...

 

I agree...do 19s otherwise I would just keep what you have. YOur existing rims are hot!!! 18's will look kinda small for our ride.

 

Yep.

 

I'm a fan of the mesh and in reality they are not hard at all to clean unless you only plan on doing it every 4 weeks. I have a plush chanelle mitt I use and a dedicated plush blue M/F drying towel for them ... added time to clean over stock is 1 min per wheel wash & dry.

 

19" HRE's are baLLer status..

 

HRE's = bling

 

those HRE's are hot as hell. trust me, they will make your car still look like a drug dealer car especially if u get them in that polished semi-satin finish. if u do get them, get them with the centers brushed. painted center (light or dark grey) HRE's also look great with the shiny ass lip. if i saw a car with HRE's i'd be pulling a jack move long before a car with rays/volks.

uhh if u do go with the 540's get 19's at least. the wheel well in the TL is huge like the G35 and also mesh wheels with the rivet lining tend to make wheels look smaller than they are.

why don't u go with some tein's and drop your car now with the rays?

 

Your selling your 203's? Those Lexions look sharp

 

I was thinking he might sell those sweet 203's
YAH, go buy the new BBS lookin wheels

 

Hmm...trading up...I'm not saying anything...nope :shakehead ...not saying anything about I told you so...Dammit! U tricked me into saying it!

Hmm...Let's see, you wanna know what we think about these?

I have an idea, ask me, ask me, ask me!

Instead of just asking us about deeezz wheels, why not ask us about the ones you REALLY want, that you are bound to get soon AFTER you get these?

I'm going to get to work on picking those, everyone else can pick these no prob! :blindfold

 

If you have that kind of bank roll then go for it.

 

get the HRE!!!!!!!!!!

 

I don't mean to be a jerk but I just hope you know that they vibrate if water gets inside the wheels like behind the centers. The wheel blanks they use have a channel that traps water. You can make the vibrations less noticeable by soaking up the water with a sponge or towel. They're okay just for the summer.

I just recommend you do your research before you place your order. Just because they're really nice looking and expensive does not mean they're free of problems.

At least the customer service for HRE is better than Iforged if you ever have a problem with your wheels.

Either way, they're gonna look really nice on your car. But just do your research before you buy them.

Good luck.

 

if your gonna do HRE's definately do 19's.

 

My Lexion's do that lol but once you drive, all the water comes out...i think most multi-piece wheels do that i donno...my friend has volks and it does the same thing

 

Cant go wrong with HREs. Who ever says HRE are over priced dont know anything about wheels. The way HREs are made are far better than many many other wheel companies including IForged, DPE etc..

I had a set of 547R on my TL and i LOVED them, they were durable as hell. I had 20's and hit some serious holes and never bent a rim. Not to mention the WOW factor i alwayz got. You wont regret it man. I just got in a set of 20in IForged for my 335 coupe and im selling them and getting a set of 540Rs because i wasnt to please with the IForged quality.

Really, what seemed to be the problem? How different are they.....

 

What about BBS RS-GT, are they any good? They actually fit the 07 TL-S. $730 each

 

Hey man

The lip on the IForged werent as smooth as my HREs, I dont know how to explain it but it wasnt smooth, it was a bit wavy. Given Iam very picky about my wheels, maybe it was just me. I also didnt like their customer service, made me feel uneasy about owning a set of their wheels and them not helping me when/if i would need it. The main reason, i wasnt happy with the lip, my brother and other people didnt notice anything but i did and when i put beside my HREs from my TL they notice the difference.

But i do know alot of guyz with IForged that are very happy with it and some that just hate them. So i guess it just depends.
