Velox Hyperion 19 inch on 2003 TL

I am thinking about putting set of 19 inch Velox Hyperion's on my stock 2003 TL-s? Has anyone seen these rims on a TL before?

Lowenhart BR5 knockoffs. Can't remember if anyone had these.

Nice wheels with a nice price.

Falken makes a similar wheel too. Some guys were discussing in this thread.
BTW - welcome to A-tl.com.

are there 19s? their website lists only 18x8 and 20x8.5. i guess they do because it's on superbuytires, but 19x8.5 might not work if offset is not mid to high 50s on a 2nd gen.

if you want the lowenharts, someone on a-cl is selling some in chrome.

Smile Falken TORQUE5 looks almost the same

Thanks for the link to the Falken thread, I really like the looks of the wheel and the price is right. I am concerned about the offset on the wheel. Correct me if I am wrong, but the higher the offset the more tucked (for lack of a better word) the wheel? I would like to keep the stock look and not have the rims or tires sticking outside the fender lines. What offset is best for that look with a 19 inch rim on the 03 TL's?

Thanks for the info-----------------------

Max width should not exceed 8" and a offset of +50 or higher would ensure a proper fit with no rubbing. This applies to all diameter wheels.

I love My Hyperion S's had them for a long time now and they still look beautiful!

I have the 19' 8's and they look great tucked up in my merc. I'm an agreesive driver and these rims can really take a beating and still look beautiful
