Well, the time has come for me to finally get NEW summer tires/Rims. My trusty Lexus rims from Mogul Pro are just about bald. (read: Check the Buy sell area soon, Need to take pictures, then will be posting)

WHat do you think?

I know everyone doesn't care about performance, but how much do those suckers weigh?

Nice! The T-Fork is a classy tuner wheel. Always liked it :)

I believe about 21 pounds. Not horrible, not great.

They arent part of the racing line, so your right, just an average wheel weight.

Yep.. same weight of the OEM wheel.

I wouldn't mind seeing some pics of the car with these wheels.

Sooo after looking at these rims for a while... I found the spokes to... delicate. Wanted something that looked a bit more beefy/solid. I ended up going with the RTX Zen rims. Thanks simply tire! Put half down now, and will get them installed late march/early april! Also getting lugs, Lock nut, Painted calipers while I'm at it!

I can't seem to find the RTX Zen on the weeb, so if Allen happens to read this.... Post em up!

Those look nice!
I think you should try something with the centre cap. Its too bright for dual finished wheel. I find im looking at the centre cap before the wheel because it stands out more.

chrome accent on signal missing perhaps?

Agreed.... The machined face requires something shiney on the car to tie it all together.

I will admit - They look SICK at night... But I'm not... Crazy about them during the day. The fact that they are painted black makes my car look much lighter grey that Carbon Mica.

But I am LOVING the Bridgestone RE 760? Sports. They are amazingly quiet and I haven't even got them to chirp or spin yet (minus rain... but they still grip way better than my winters... which gripped better than my Toyo Proxies...
