Hey I’am going to be purchasing rims soon for my s13 and I had these Tenzo R Wheels Passion in mind in 18x7.5 or 17x7, but i dunno if they would sit flush and which size would be better, anyways please let me know what you think.

Thanks!

Would definatly not sit flush in either size.

Stay away from tenzo and other honda type wheels if you want flushness, look for something wider and with a lower offset.

look for 17X9’s and like a +28 offset. it would sit nice i think.

If ur going to get rims u might aswell spend the money and get something nice. u dont want a 25lb rim atleast thats what i would do. heavy rims slow car

I agree, wait until you can afford something your gonna love. I’m saving for some Volks, and can’t wait. Nice rim design though…
