If I were looking for good budget wheels i'd look at enkei. Tenzo are just low end wheels. Hope that helps.

Welcome. Do the specs fit your needs?
Is the weight appropriate?
Do you like the look?
Are they within your budget?

Tenzo came a long way from cheesey immitation to a perfect combination of quality and reliablity. There current wheels design isn't that bad compare to how they started out back then.

Hey, there is reason why Super Street still advertise there wheels on the back page and SS been advertising there rims long before I lost my virginity...

Yeah, I'm not sure about their "new design" but I know the older wheels weren't great quality.

Go with what you like. The quality is fine on Tenzo's (good enough for what u need them for, anyway) and i personally really like how some of their wheels look. I would say, if you dig em, buy em.

Just make sure they have the right offsets and sizes you want first. And dont let these "brand name", Coach purse toting ladies talk you into getting something you dont want.

The RPF1 is a great wheel and great price and well made, but its more for the track imo. I wouldnt get the RPF1 if your going more show than go. I personally think they look like chit smeared on a bagel.

I put a set of 17" Tenzo "Cuzco's" on my girlfriends '07 Sentra that we use as a DD a few months back, which are part of their 'new' 09 wheel line. I got the "titanium gunmetal" color, which I guess is also new. The finish gives an impression of a more expensive wheel, and the quality is definitely decent for the cost. I can't say how well the finish will hold up, but so far it's still perfect. The CF center caps are kind of cool. I know years back Tenzo's quality wasn't great and had friends with Tenzo's that ended up having wheel-finish issues a year down the road, but I think they've improved their game. It was a perfect fit for this type of commuter car (IMO), and with the much better Kuhmo tires it handles much more to my liking, which goes a long ways for a car that I drive over the Z the majority of the time.

That said, I wouldn't personally be slapping a set on my Z anytime soon, and would rather go with some RPF1's or probably even Rota's before Tenzo. RPF1's because of the performance aspect, and Rota's just because "their" () designs are better suited for a RWD car IMO. I don't think Tenzo quite understands the RWD arena yet.

Their 19x10 has a +22 offeset which compares to most wheels, even the high end ones. I like some designs and im going to buy the mesh type for my wife's car soon.

Ya i saw silver 19" "mesh type's" on a Z here in Houston. They look great at an angle cause great CONCAVE!! BUT the ends of the spokes stick out past the lip when you look at them straight on...i do not like this at all kind sir.
