Honestly, I'm not a fan of chrome wheels myself.. but those aren't too bad. I try and picture them on your car, and I like what I'm thinking. I think they will look great personally. Post pics if you do end up getting them.

Those are the rims Jaws021 had on his silver Tib. His were polished & not chrome though.

They looked awesome. Here are some pics...





He was obviously raised in a barn though... never shuts his bloody doors! wink1.gif

Make sure they have the forgings are in stock BEFORE you order. I ordered mine over a month ago and they still do not have the forgings ready. I'm a little pissed, but, I really want my rims, so I guess I will take it up the ass for a few more weeks!!! lmao.gif I ordered the Excel rims:

i actually don't like them all that much. i'm more 16-spoke or 5-spoke but everything else just looks wierd or ricer to me.

i love rims that pop out, like the WRX rims, OZ superturismos, even my rims. i just think that porsche-style goes better with the curves. tiburons don't match well with boxy honda bodykits and they shouldn't go with boxy honda rims. instead they should have some fancy exotic rims. just my opinion...

the thing i don't like the ones jaws had are that they look like they're more for a truck or cavalier than a tiburon. and i really despise tucked in cookie-cutter 5-spoke rims.
