Oh yeah and my other socks are mostly champions... kinda thought it would be obvious

not enough suspension travel if i slam&tuck. 
my exhuast piping will hit the rear beam if i go any lower. i could also bend the beam for some neg camber action but yah most likely not.

somethings just not adding up here. that does not look like how i would expect a 10 +24mm offset to fit at all. there is also a lot of negative camber going on for a solid rear beam. care to enlighten me?
not hating btw, if thats bolted up and ready to go congratulations. it looks freakin sick.

If you ever park with the one of the rear wheels in a hole/dip you will see what I mean. The wheel will be pushed to the fender with negative fender while the opposing wheel will have equal positive camber...

^^^ That's what I thought was going on.
It's not as bad aroung here but I KNOW in your uber l33t VSC/Zilvia buddies will be hating on the TENZOS! F*CK FAKES blahblahblah....
Simple matter is those look bad as hell. They could be Fisher Price for all I care. That weight is nuts though, car will feel like a tank (which is good and bad I guess).
Realllly want to see these tired up and on the ground.

I have bowed down, those are some awesome looking rims. BlackonBlack, your concept looks clean too!
I let my brother park my car the other day at my sister's wedding, and I've got slight curbage already, so BE CAREFUL.
Seriously, those are awesome rims.

weight IS definitely a problem as I'm more than likely going to surpass the 50lb/wheel mark. with gas prices going up and the decrease in performance from these behemoths, at least ill be looking good.
Im trying to get tires on these *****es as soon as i can. I am as eager as all of you to mount em on the car.

DAMN IT!!!!! THAT IS NOT BRONZE!!!

I would be mad if i ordered the "bronze" and this sweet caramel color came instead.

No offense, but you need to do a bit more research before you buy stuff. That IS hyperblack. I also notice you buying a bunch of s'hit and then tripping out about the sizes and having them on for a couple days. Whats with that? Don't take it the wrong way but I would really like to keep this n00bert type stuff out of a great thread.

i hate on my own wheels lol. im hesitant when they ask me what it is... i dont even want to say it but damn it does look freakin good for Tenzo's. im not gonna put the center cap on tho. doesnt look good at all, cheesy to the max. I've never seen this particular design on anyother manufacturer so in a sense its not a faker. I know in the past these werent the greatest of wheels to begin with but over time a manufacturer learns mistakes and improves. They have to start somewhere given a certain budget and what not. So im hoping Tenzo improved on their wheel design and casting.

I know that, but you know the type of guys that I'm talking about. The same crew that rolls those jello shifter *****.
These wheels remind me of a staggered setup that BMW would use on an M car.

average of 25lbs is not too bad for a wide 19. But yes you will probably feel the difference.
On that note, I have been driving around with a 3700lb maxima (got it weighed with all my tools and crap inside) for awhile, I took all my crap out of it and man this (stock) thing is quick all of a sudden.

Hmm.... looked better in the other pictures (maybe it's just too low in these) but I still like em. You should pick up some Mazda Millenia or 929 wheels--15x6, 11lbs (12 for 929s)

I guess Axis and the like can be considered in the same category.average of 25lbs is not too bad for a wide 19. But yes you will probably feel the difference.

for cheap?? I may consider getting another set for those rare tracking days. Theres a track day in June at Buttonwillow that I'm considering on going to. You should look into it... one of my 350z friends is going.

15x6.5 i believe. the Millenia/626 are still lighter nevertheless.
