Now these are some tight wheels!

Man I love these wheels. Been waiting for them to come in for months! Finally here!
We shipped some to a CL owners and Accord owners
No TL owners yet, who is going to be first



Look at that lip!
Never seen a lip like that with the right offset

Manaray Wheels

Tell me about it..I'm still broke...so no matter how cheap it is, still can't afford em...plus it's gonna start snowing soon...

Question Tim, are those Chrome on that Accord? or is it Silver? Does it only come in 18's? or can I get a set of 17's? I drive in the city way too much, to have 18's and not catch a flat...or bent rim

I can see them growing onto me but it's not doing it for me. Now Iwill admit that lip is very attractive...But the design makes the rim look small, what else you got...

Sup Asian Knights,

Those are Silver on my Accord. I believe they come in 17's also.

I think they are phat... but those spokes are a bit too rounded for my taste... I had go with those RH rims still, if I have the $$$.

They are a bit too curved in, and would have been nice if there was more 'bling' to the rim. Not bad though...

Oh boy Tim, I've been eyeing these rims for a long time now. I was so tempted to just say "fvck it" and order them but alas, my common sense takes over..... I need to save my $$'s to get married:p Besides, it would make me even more paranoid to park it anywhere, and that will hamper my lifestyle, if you know what I mean

Anyway, I did a quick Photoshop job during lunch to get a idea what it would look like on a silver TL. Not a perfect job but I got the idea..... I'll get them one day, I hope.

NSXNEXT, I hope you don't mind I used your picture It was the closest angle to what I was looking for on the net off my head. I must also give thanks to geaux4it for the pic of the rim I got from his Accord(Nice Accord). Thanks guys

What do you guys think?
