They look good to me. There are some pics floating around of these rims. One was a silver Z with these rims in black with silver stripe.

I wish everyone would stop copying that "Time Attack look."

It is seriously undermining the dignity of the aftermarket.

I did a search and found this post on the bottom of page one theres pics of a silver Z with these in all grey. I do like 'em alot better without the time attack look. https://my350z.com/forum/wheels-tire...-r-type-m.html

It's a good looking wheel. Just doesn't fit on the Z or G IMO.

Boring design with spokes that stick out beyond the face, completely played-out color scheme, and look cheap. Underrated? I say "nay".

Clearly, that is a valid measure of reliability for any wheel.

I thought that these were alright wheels, but not ones I bought.
Then I learned that the spokes go out first then concave back in.
Red lip -> Convex? -> Concave -> Donuts!

Let me guess you love volks... Everyone who buy volks, have just heard that they are the best wheels on the market, so since they are forged and maybe weigh two or three pounds less than these tenzos it makes it alright to charge almost a thousand dollars per wheel, when i can get this whole set for a little more than a thousand. Tell me what is the point in buying volks? and tell me this do you do serious racing with you car?



...... now we sit and wait for the volk gods to enter

Underrated? Hardly.

These are cheap, low-quality knockoff wheels with so-so fitment and is yet another wheel sporting the time attack style. Also, look at how the spokes curve out past the lip of the wheel, thus cheating to create more of a concave effect. Lame.

There's way too many spokes, and hate (with a passion) the stupid red line.

Yes. Those who have tenzo wheels agree.

Why is there a big red stripe all over the wheel? Also not FAT lip?
