Where to get these wheels? Thanks =)

[Adam]

As the title said, I am trying to find a shop which sells the following wheels. I have a few that I want to look at physically in real life before committing myself into buying... But so far, I have contacted my local stores, but none of them stock these. So, I was wondering whether anyone would know where I can see some.

This is the look i am after.....

1. Lenso Tenzo mach-10 with black and red lips



or

2. Somthing similar to this with black and red lips. I know below will not fit my car, but I can't seem to find similar wheels in that colour combination.



For number 1 wheel, i am seriously thinking about importing from the state if i can't find any here... But still, doesn't help in letting me look at it to see whether it'll suit the car....

Thanks in advance....

Oh god thats a hot Borlf!

Umm... find similar rims and paint them black with that nice little red ring around it?

I'm sorry I'm being completely useless as usual Keep and eye out for a nice set of wheels that you look similar and get em' painted.

Thanks Houso, That's not useless, I kinda forgot about that painting options. But how much would such a job cost?

do it yourself its easy as and the red rim-job is easy too, if you take it to a tyre place they'll charge 150 per wheel... ouch.

this guy pretty much sums it up http://forums.evolutionm.net/showthread.php?t=194291 but you'll want to take off the tyres first to avoid peeling and/or cracking down the track. remember, lots of mist-thin coats is better than a couple thick ones. oh and as usual, the prep is the most important bit. the first pic looks like it has some sort of bbs mesh style wheels on it which is my fav style it'll look horny on a polo.

The second set of wheels are either Bee-R rims or a very popular copy called Drift Teks. They only come in 4/5x114.3 but with some adapters it wouldn't be a problem! They look tuff on the right car

You can get rims powercoated for about $25 a corner, plus a bit extra if they require sand blasting.

Yeah mate, it may be hard to find the EXACT wheels, but you can definitely find some in the design you want, have them powdercoated black, then do the pinstriping around the rim of the wheel yourself. Taking the wheels to a dedicated powdercoater rather than to a wheel specialist should save you quite a bit (Maris did the same with his steel wheels, and I remembered he got them powdercoated for very cheap). Oh, and give WABIT a PM, he has done pinstriping on his wheels before.

Oh, and Tempe Tyres are a distributor for Lenso wheels aren't they? Maybe give them a go, and see if they would be willing to bring those wheels down for you.
