New set of rims. - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #44088 18 posts Started by Nibbe
So im looking up for some new set of rims cos im not a fan anymore of the chrome ones that ive got. Im thinking of a set of these tenzo-r's but not sure about the size yet. Just want your opinions of how the rims would look on my silver celi? And do you guys now something about quality of these tenzo-r rims?

Thats something i wanna hit but those are only availalbe in 18x7,5". But in 19's theres 8" wide rim for the front and nice 10" wide rim for the back. wink.gif Just kidding but wondering that 10" wide rim would look really good on the back of the celi.

You'd need to have insane offset for the 10'' to fit. On top of that, you'd probably need to refab the fenders so the wheels can tuck.

One o'dem crazy Canadian freaks, eh?
yea ummmmmm there isn't really a reason to stagger wheels in a FWD car...unless its purely for looks....
I just thinked it for the looks really. Im thinking on going 18x7,5" or 19x8" rims.

you might want to take a look at the lug pattern on these rims...cause according to Tenzo's website, these rims do not come 5x100 , which is the celi's lug pattern wink.gif (someone please correct me if im wrong..)..nice rims though..

At least they are having it on 5x100 http://www.showoffimports.nl/customer/prod...1322&page=1. Not sure but i think this was also the only rims from tenzor that had our lug pattern.

I really like that rim, I was also thinking about getting that for my car but just like 6gc_driven said, according to this from Tenzo's pricing list, the GF-7 will not fit.

We shall show mercy, but we shall not ask for it.
I dont get it why there is 5x114/100 if there isnt a 5x100 lug pattern? The GT-5 rim only has 5x114,3 but atleast i think this GF-7 has two options.

I don't know, I sent the company an e-mail asking them to clear that up so I'll let you know as soon as I hear back from them.

Ok thanks alot mate. I hope that those are able on 5x100 cos theres some other rims too that have two opinions. But anyway we'll see and thanks again.

Don't go under 8,5x18!
7,5" is much to small imo or you had to go for spacers... I got 8,5x18 front and back on my Four, that looks really nice. 9x18 on the back would be even better.

Ive now got 18x8" rims and those doesnt look too bad to me. I think im going with the 19x8" but doesnt really decided yet. Already just have the money for the new rims.

so why you don't try this: 18x7½" in the front and 19x8½" (if exist) on the back

Tires could be 225/35R18 on the front and 235/30R19 on back

The size is going to be pretty much that 19x8". Just dont know what size of tires i would go but ive got two options 1. 215/35 or 2. 225/30. What you guys think?

well it's could be 225/30, so you'll have to know the offset of those rims!

thats exactly what i was looking at too Jon. I would rather look at the company's actual size sheet, rather than some other website who is trying to sell the rims..
well n e way, so i was a bit confused myself just like nibbe, so i called up my shop sponsor and asked them. they called up tenzo, and some dude that worked there told the shop owner that the rims dont come 5X100. sorry nibbe.. kindasad.gif
