Tenzo Quality?

**lilken21** · 06-17-2008 02:15 PM

Hi everyone! I am new to the A3 but not new to audizine -- I just traded in my '07 A4 2.0T s-line ti-pkg 6MT/FWD for the A3 3.2 (got have the quattro) -- I've also previously owned an '04 A4 USP/6MTQ.

Anyway, I'd like to know if anybody has any recent experience with Tenzo wheels. As I was doing some research, I came across a few posts from other car forums that said that they are so-so quality. Can anyone confirm or refute this. I really really like the look of the Tenzo R Type-M (mesh) wheels. I would get it in black with red trim. I think it would look cool on my black A3 (I will eventually get the blackout grille).

Thanks in advance for your insight/input.

BTW, here is a link to the wheels (I can't post pics at work

I think they look decent but people will flame u since they are not BBS, iForge or HRE...

Those wheels are sick. Are the expensive? I agree people are haters if the wheels arent some common ass BBS or RS4 reps. I like it when people have orginal but tasteful choices for wheels that arent the same ol same ol. I'm now putting my fire retardant turnouts on. Oh Yeah I hope you get them so I can see what it looks like.

They're not that expensive - approx. 230-250 per wheel. I'm 80% sure I'll get them but I am still looking around -- I keep coming back to it though. If I do get them it'll be around Aug/Sep and I'll definitely post pix and let the audizine hate/love begin

BTW Jefex, I'm a stone's throw away from the LBC -- I live in Lomita. I'm planning on getting my wheels at WheelWarehouse in Anaheim. I have a 2006 3.2 also (Brilliant Black).

I looked at those. They are okay, however most of the pics you see of them on sites are of the 10" wide versions where the spokes curve out to become flush with the lip. The 8" version that you want the spokes curve out past the lip then come back in. I didnt like that.

I know what you mean

I saw them on an IS300 and one on an MKV -- both 18s. I still like the concaveness of it though.
