Your opinion on Tenzo Rims??!
I dont know much about rims, what are your thoughts on the brand Tenzo overall? Are they good in quality? Attached are a couple of rims that I picked out so far for my Lexus IS 250 Black, feel free to comment on them. Suggestions on other brands are welcome!

here's the best advice i can offer you. If you live in so cal and you drive a lot of public freeways or thru cities with bad streets which is most cities, i would not spend a lot of expensive rims. a lot of people i know have had their rims bent, scratched, dinged, etc on bad roads. Plus, if you have expensive rims and park your car frequently near places where there are a lot of younger people i.e. colleges, malls, etc you raise the chance of getting high end rims jacked. if you have a show car or dont drive your car a lot then it might be a good idea. That said i like 5zigen, Work, and Veilside wheels.

if you want black rims check out zenetti five. I was going to get them for my car but I have SGM and they are a little too dark so I'm going with gunsmoke finish.

My suggestions:
Cheap non-cheap looking brands (avg $200-300 per wheel)
MRR, HP, NAD, ASA
Mid-High range (avg $500-900)
Volk, Work, Rays, Advan, Iforged, DPE, DCR,
High end (avg $900-1000+)
HRE, Kinesis, Asanti, Fikse, Work

work you have to get it thru their US distributior which is Toda racing, veilside i think you can buy direct from them or from one of their distributors. rims from both companies are relatively expensive though. I've personally always wanted the veilside andrew racing V rims, which i think have been discontinued.

Whoa, what is your budget on rims Vut? That way people can recommend rims in your price range. I say this because you asked for an opinion on Tenzos in one post and then mention HRE in another. There is almost a 1000 dollar difference in price between those brands.
