not a fan of:

the text being stamped into the face like that
the count of spokes..........washing will be a pita
the red lip..........getting used on too many wheels now a days

whats their reliability record?


other then that they look clean

They look ok. I think they arent aggressive enough though. A buddy of mine has these on his rsx in bronze without the red lip. I think they look great on his car.

im not looking for the tenzo rims with the red stripe i like these.... http://www.elementwheels.com/prodimages/typembm.jpg im sure the reliability is not horrible because people are buying them. and im not going to bring them to the track and push them to the max or whatever, its just for everyday driving

ya, everyone is always talking about how if you pay for a cheap rim like these (even if they are not really that cheap $300) that they will crack because they are not of the high quality of volk, which are the gods of rims for most people for more than $800 a rim! i mean c mon really is it that worth it?

Not attractive whatsoever.

Just another spinoff of the original.

I like them, but I totally agree that they would be a pain in the *** to clean.
