Been looking at wheels for a few months now and I still cant decide which one's I want. Axis Hiro's, and these Milano look-alikes (http://www.wheelsnext.com/wheels-rim...persilver.html) have been at the top of my list. I've also been searching for some 5 spoke concave type wheels but cant seem to find any I like, other than these (http://www.adv1wheels.com/gallery/wh...ece/adv5_1.php) which are way out of my price range.

Looking for 19's and the car will be dropped shortly on tein s techs


Looking for opinions and suggestions to help me make up my mind before I go insane!

The ones in the 2nd link are nice, what's your budget?

Get Milanos cuz Hiros are discontinued.

TiggaMan909

IMO, any 5 spoke design compliments the TL really well. you just can't go wrong. But like the last guy said, your budget will narrow down your choices.

Also, do you prefer the VIP look or track sporty look? Take a look at the photo gallery. Lots of ideas/suggestions there...

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

are you sure about that? I've seen this mentioned in a few threads but see hiro's on every wheel site I go to..

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

looking to spend around 2k and not really into the VIP look

TiggaMan909

i think its the other way around.. I believe the millano's are discontinued and hiro's are readily available...

I'd check out ronjon, i hear they have a nice new wheel line up coming out for 2010.

Thanks.. I've seen the ronjons before but I'm not lovin them. I keep going between the hiro's and the milano replicas. I've seen the hiro on numerous cars on here and sometime I love em and some times they look really small..

Any 5-6 spoke concave wheel options? haven't seen many

I think those are some real nice concave wheels..

TiggaMan909

always been a fan of the axis elites too... I have yet to see a TL with them, but i think it would look great!

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

I liked yours too! its one of the ones that got me into the hiros!

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

yea, I like em too...I've seen them on a white 2g somewhere and they looked good. I'm really looking for silver though..this decision is gonna drive me nuts!!!

thx for all the replies/suggestions though...keep em comin!

I really like those 5Zigen Gravis, but they're discontinued...why are all the hot wheels I like discontinued? lol

boltzus

The wheels in the second link are just sick. Then again, most things look awesome on custom Lambos, Mercedes, Porsches. TL is no slouch though, ignore your budget and get the wheels that you won't regret seeing every day.

I agree about the ADV.1 wheels, but where do you buy them? I've looked all over the web without and luck.

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

I agree they're great but $5k for just the wheels is not in the cards right now.

I vote for the Eurosport "milanos". The chunky 5 spoke look complements the TL so well.

rondog

iTrader: (1)

Since you are in NY, I think it won't hurt to come in and see our wheels on display. Give me a call. Even if you decide to not go with the RJ wheels, you will still find out some interesting info that will help you understand what you can and cannot get away with on your car.

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

thanks. where in yonkers are you? I'm in scarsdale so I'm close. I love the devotions but too expensive for me. I thought I rememberd there being a cheaper 1 piece version.....

rondog

iTrader: (1)

The 1 piece version was discontinued because supplies for the blanks were no longer available. We are taking the DT3 version and rebuilding them with different sized lips and finishes if interested. I can explain everything in person, our warehouse and showroom address is on the website contact page, call in to schedule an appointment to see everything we have to offer, I'm sure when you see the wheels in person, you will appreciate the possibilities.

SaifTL

I got a 2006 TL 6 speed manuel.
Currently i have 19" wheels and not really happy with them... i feel like for high speeds and racing i dont have enough traction and they are chrome so they are extra heavy!!!
i want 18" racing rims any one have a good source with some good prices????

rondog

iTrader: (1)

call or email me, these wheels are 22 lbs each, alot lighter than even the OEM 17" wheels.

what about one of these?

I prefer Eurosport Euro 22 it will look nice.

myron

iTrader: (4)

+1, those look the best. What is the offset of those, the site doesn't show?

KamoteQ

iTrader: (1)

I like the Eurosport Euro 6 as well but they don't fit on a TL. At least that's what it shows at Wheelsnext. I can't find this type of rims anywhere anymore. Milanos and Jas trinitys are all discontinued.

If anyone knows of a design close to this please let me know. Or if you know if the Eurosport Euro 6 will fit. Thanks.

Go see Rondy's Inspyres...I've always loved the way they look on a TL.

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

they should fit. I called wheelsnext- the bolt pattern is the same and the offset its 35. They consider that to be outside the limits that 'fit' the TL, but there are many members on this running +35, some even lower

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

Thanks. I've seen the inspyres and while I like em I've seen at least 3 tl's around the area with them and I'm looking to do something a little different. I love the devotion 3 in liquid graphite but 690 a wheel is rediculous IMO.

KamoteQ

iTrader: (1)

Thanks. I will check them out again.

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

after more searching, I think I'm goin with these...

^Those look like Work Varianzas.

Are you getting a staggered set-up?

jrtls03

iTrader: (1)

that why I like em.. no staggered just 19x8.5 all around.

CLtotheTL32

iTrader: (3)

^Nice! I'm looking forward to seeing them on the car

TiggaMan909

Nice choice! Make sure you post pics when you have them!

Mr.President

you should get whatever the second link was, or close to it.... and also, I would have caution with the S. tech's from tein... I heard they wear out your suspension alot faster (or something like that) you should just get a good suspension kit.... I'm actually getting Tein's SS... I heard good things about them....

but back to the wheels.... you should go to this link if you haven't already ...https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-tires-wheels-suspension-97/new-wheel-tire-specs-thread-pics-577276/... it will show you what looks good on the tl.... in my opinion... the 5 spoke is the best look, but it also depends what design and what not... I myself have the Ron Jon DT3-F (devotions) Liquid grafite machined face.... I love em...THEY ARE THE SHYT.... I wish I had them staggered though...
