Question Thoughts On Zenetti 20" Rims ...

Hey guys ... I was wondering what ya'll would think about this ... 20" Zenetti Deuce rims on a '06 black on black TL? I think black rims look small anywayz .. so do you think these would be too big? Zenetti stopped making them in the 19's so I would have to get 20" now ($2,200 with Nitto 555's-245/35-20 size tires) ... which I didn't plan on doing. I was also planning on getting the TEIN SS suspension with it.

1. Pictures of 3G TL with 19" Zenetti Deuce Rims

2. Zenetti Rims At Zenetti Site

3. My Car As Of April 2006

I would go with the bigger tire if you don't plan to drop it. It will fill out the wheel well. I have 245/35's on mine and they fill it out perfect.

If your going with the Tein SS set up you might want to go with a 235/35/20 tire.

This is my baby with her shoes on. I tried to keep it subtle yet classy.













Sorry about the cardomain logo, that's the only website I have my pics posted up on so far.


I had to throw the chrome accents in there, for $10 you can't beat that.

These are the Foose Speedsters II. Two-piece. Pretty much the same as the Speedster 1 piece, just has a deeper lip though.

Thanks. To be honest I was thinking about dropping it an inch, but decided against it. I like the ride the way it is. It actually doesn't feel any different then the stock (if you can believe that). Plus I can you the moeny from the springs for engine parts to give it more ponies or to hook up the interior... I still got a few things I wanna do with her, but I'm not going to go overboard because I wanna keep the luxurious and classy appeal of it.

I'm settling between 19 and 20. What size tire did you choose?

Yeah, I was tossing up the idea to get the ASPEC or the Ron Jon Kit, but for right now because of the cost I'm going to just lower it , tint it up, and try to keep it as clean as possible.
Black is gorgeous but with my wife's black G35 and my TL being black, sometimes I feel like it's a part-time job that I'm not getting paid for!

I hear ya. I have to clear my schedule for the day just to wash and wax my car. But there's no better look then a black car that's just been waxed to a mirror finish (white's hot when waxed too). In the end it's worth it... (until some bird comes along and shits on your masterpiece).

They've got to be hosted somewhere...I suggest Photobucket, but I'm biased as work blocks images hosted on Imageshack

Wow you finally got them on... looks badass. With the black inserts it's really going to look nice. Are you going to drop it at all?

Good question. I'm pondering it and there's a great import customs shop around in the hood but I'll have to research the benefits, potential risks and costs.

Yeah I herd that. I'm really considering the Aspec suspension.... only drops it 1/2 inch... that would be just right for me. Already ordered the comptech sway bar. on Friday... hopefully it'll be here this week so I can install it.
