Overall it is a great looking wheel, my only complaint is the "bowed" effect that the spokes have from the side shots.

[dread]

Damn those rims are heavy, good price though.

[SwampAss]

22.6 lbs is not heavy for an 18X8. There are lighter wheels out there, but most are a lot heavier.


Are they cast or low pressure cast?

[Derek88]

Element wheels is where I got my Tenzos from back in Jan. A great company to deal with!

Low pressure cast.

Thanks, we appreciate that!

[Mid_Life_Crisis]

Not bad, but P1 is better looking (my opinion obviously) weigh 3 pounds less and are $80 less for a set, delivered.

[silversurfer513]

Is the version 2 wheel the one that has the machined face?

[elementmotor]

Yes, so far I have pics of the bronze version 2 that I will get uploaded today for you guys.

[GhostMercury]

those goldish ones would look hot on a black ms3....hmmm

[GhostMercury]

does anyone have these wheels yet

[RelliMS3]

does anyone have these wheels yet

i dooo, but not on my car, tomorrow they'll be on, i swear this time.

[BLAZEONE]

I've been checking out these wheels for a while, and I am trying to decide what color would look best on sunlight silver. I like the charcoal, black, or these 2 colors in version 2, which comes with a polished lip and center piece. I need some suggestions.

I would probably go charcoal on sunlight silver, but black would definitely look good too.

[Vord]

do you guys carry any of your rims in 17x8 +45mm?

[justanothermp5]

do u have any pics of them on a car? like any car with a pretty close offset to these

The Black with Machined Face would look killer I think. I'll try to get pics of that one up on Monday for you guys, some just came in today.

Not on a MS3....I have pics of these on some other cars though.

[BLAZEONE]

Yea the machine face looks so clean! After confirming this color with you guys, I'm around 90% on my choice. Just need to check out the lip, and how the black looks on the inside of the spokes. How many 18x8 machined face did you receive?

[Haltech]

The offset was the killer for me along with color choices. Beautiful wheels otherwise.

[BLAZEONE]

what is the ideal offset for the ms3?

[GhostMercury]

as high as you can get lol. but 45 is about the lowest

[elementmotor]

Updated pics added on page 1 of the black with machined face and bronze version 2.

[ericrapp]

Why do you do this to me Chris. These wheels do look very nice especially the last pic, but I am sure I will be very pleased upon receipt of my package. Thanks for your help with it.

[rmcat]

could these be shipped to Canada? if so how much it would be?Thx!

[zim]

wow the black with red lip looks amazing. those will definitely be my next wheels.

[elementmotor]

(Canada Quebec J4J3C2)

Yes we can ship to Canada, its no problem. Add $150 to the price to ship rims only or $220 to ship rims and tires.

[jaydubz]

possibly a stupid question, but would the stock tires fit and would there be any rubbing?

[hectik1]

I love them. (shocked)(first)

[haberdashery]

does anyone have any outdoor pictures of these wheels in bronze mounted on a car? its so hard to tell what kind of bronze it is..

[zoom_craigy_zoo]

HOT!!!! I love the charcoal color! Those would look awesome on my titanium gray mazda3 hatch. I wish I had the money.

[AG DesignWorks]

Great looking rims, i like all the color choices, the color of the car would be the only deciding factor, because not one of the finishes is ugly.

I've already got rims, but i'll let my roommate know about these. He drives an Evo.

[BLAZEONE]

could you please post a pic of them ag?

[haberdashery]

thanks man! those look so hot, i wish there was more sun though. sometimes bronze rims get all gold and cheesy when they hit they sun. i dont think these would though, that color is hot.

[nondual]

How did you get the red lip? Did the wheels come that way? That is a friggin' AWESOME look!

[ericrapp]

I would like to chime in. Element supplied me with the Tenzo DC-5s in bronze with Nitto 555 for a great price and good service too. When I need more Nitto's I will ask The guys at Element to supply them again for me. m4tic, resistance is futile!

The black w/ red stripe on red is definitely played out, but for a good ass reason. By far the cleanest black w/red stripe for all of the red ms3 owners out there.

I am leaning toward the also played out silver w/ black, but I have yet to see a silver ms3 with these wheels in black or even charcoal. Come on silvers, get ballsy and do me a favor!!

Looks good man, car is sick. What exhaust is that? Looks like a frag launcher

[Quiksilver05]

Yeah those rims look hot!! I also have a silver MS3, I would get them but the colors do make a difference. Im leaning towards more of the charcoal on silver look (first) Anyone with a silver MS3 who is a risk taker? Or at least photoshop to get an idea?? haha! But who knows?

[controlo]

God Damnit, those wheels look bad!!! i want the flat black for my sunlight silver. *drool*

[RDDRAGN8]

Hi guys, new to the forums. Actually own an rx8 and am interested in the Tenzo's.
I'm looking at the type two, I like the chrome looking lip. I have no problem with offset, and am going to stay stock.

Before I make my first ever purchase of aftermarket wheels, I have to know the difference in Cast and low pressure cast wheels. I am an aggressive driver, and venture into the twisties often. From a purely love of the road and handling standpoint, would these be a good wheel to buy?

Thanks,

[MS3077]

Which ones would look best on the Black Mica and is the offset okay enough that I wouldn't need to roll my fendors if I go H&R springs?

[shaitsta]

what color do you think looks the best with a COSMIC BLUE MS3

[MS3077]

what color do you think looks the best with a COSMIC BLUE MS3

Hey let them answer my question first! (dark)

[wisniaPl]

what color do you think looks the best with a COSMIC BLUE MS3

silver like mine rims(bowdown)

[shaitsta]

lol yours is easier....everything looks good with black!!! the blue is harder

[MS3077]

lol yours is easier....everything looks good with black!!! the blue is harder

Ha-ha! This is true :)

[shaitsta]

would white look good with blue car??

[UHATEIT]

why does no one make anything with a BLUE lip! Everyone makes it with red lip out there! I wouldnt mind silver with a blue lip if Tenzo makes anything like that

[Double Dspeed]

When are the Black with Machined face going to be availible i sent a PM but no reply..... i've photoshopped them on their and they look sweet...

My cousin said his friend used a pinstriping tape or something to make his own lip and said it turned out flawlessly. I imagine you could just buy the black wheel and do it yourself. Take your time and it'll look fresh.

[phillyb]

i agree with relli, i'm sure there are ways for you to make a blue lip by yourself.

you can also take any wheel to most paint shops and they can paint it for you. or anodyzed or powdercoated...

there are those wheels that have the lip that changes color based on location...

[mazdack]

hey any white type m still up for sale?? 18 in, 5x114.3, +37 let me know thanks

[eliminator]

what color do you think looks the best with a COSMIC BLUE MS3

I think the bronze would look decent. Maybe even the gunmetalish charcoal? ones too.
