New wheels possibly...what do you guys think?

Hey guys, so I was looking at these wheels and just wanted your opinions on em...I called up my cousin and he photoshopped them for me because I wasn't at home and he sent me this pic...what do you guys think? I'd probably get 19x9.5's.

That looks good. I'm in the market for rims as well.

I think you need to go 20's to get it to look close to the one in the pics.

Oh I forgot to mention they're Moda 210's...and thanks for the feedback. I haven't bought them so this is mostly just for input...thanks! and KamoteQ you're right now that I look at that pic it certainly looks like 20's. I haven't had time to photoshop it myself with a 19" look.

i don't like'em....

start looking into Ron Jon wheels ( legends type 3 are hella sexy), Volks (tirerack.com), some Works wheels should look good. It all depends on how much you wanna spend. I recommend 18 or 19's if you live in a hostile enviorment like boston, NY, or anyplace that is riddled with potholes.

it looks like you're kinda going for the VIP look, I guess you are looking for a mutiple spoke rim, which is pretty hard to find a good set if you don't have the $$$$. 5 spoke desgins go with the TL's real nicely. but if you got the cash, maybe the Work Vs-XX is a good looking multi-spoke rim. IMO.

Yeah I agree...RonJon has some REALLY nice wheels...I could get these wheels so cheap (Under $300) to where I'm thinking I should just buy them and flip them on craigslist to make an extra buck. Then I could get something I really like (RJ's)...just a thought. I'm feelin the 5 spoke look a lot more. I don't remember exactly who but they had some Matte black RJ devotions on an AM TL that were realllly hot.

devotions are like the Flag ship wheels of Ron Jon. They are $$$ though, so you really got to see all your options.

if you go to the wheels forum, you can find a thread that will show you like 10 pages of TL's with different Rims from alot of the Aziners around here. the link is https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-tires-wheels-suspension-97/new-wheel-tire-specs-thread-pics-577276/
take a look and see what fits your style. It also shows the specs of the wheels and the tires they roll on.

Enkie has a new wheel for 2010, the PF01. It's up to 18" though.

If you like the Devotions but not so much the price, keep your eye on the Black Market. Sets of the original 3pF's pop up from time to time, and I'm sure sets of the new ones (forget the moniker) will start to pop up in the next year or two. Heck, I'll even sell you my 3pF's if you want them.

Devotions are awesome, but you should consider some RonJon Inspyres too.

Negative on my part. How about A-Spec rims in chrome? don't make you car look like a spider.

They don't flow with the car. Too many curves.

Check out OZ Palladio (not as curvy) similar design.

ohhh yeah the aspec wheels look niiice on an AM...hmm well the gameplan is to fix my hub first and foremost because it's starting to make some noise as of a few days ago. Then I'm opening up the headlights and blacking them out and adding switchbacks hopefully next week. You guys have given me some bad ass suggestions but I think I'll have to wait on the wheels a bit...maybe I should buy them as a college graduation present to myself in December?

I am also looking for new wheels. But think I want to stay with 17's since I just had to buy 2 new tires for inspection. If going to 18's and wouldn't be worried about the $$, I would probably get the OZ Sardegna from tirerack.com.

Anybody have pics of 3rd gen with custom 17's ?
