Ilike them

Those are Tenzo Cinco's and yes they would look fantastic , the only set back you may have is whether they offer it in our bolt pattern and offset. BTW , Tenzo's are very strong and are an excellent quality tuner wheel.

Unhappy Rice?

Rice is a grain grown in temperate to hot regions with high humidity levels.
It is used for foodstuffs and a miriad of commercial products from paper to bonding agents.
It is a mainstay food supply providing 80% of carbohydrates to a large world population.
Some people use the word rice to describe products made in Japan such as Tenzo Wheels .
Funny... these "rice" products are then installed on Japanese vehicles such as Subarus .
This makes all of us and 1fastgc "rice" people too or does"Fuji Heavy Industries" translate into "Gol durn American Muscle Car company...Yee Haaaa!"?

Tenzos are not made in Japan. The wheels are manufactured in Taiwan.

Rice products are imitation products.

Got me!

I ceceed on the nationality of the rims! I just get Rice Deffensive some times...
I guess that's bad news for myself and all
the I-clubbers out there running Rota rims , seems the "rice" definition puts our nock off
rims right up there with the Fast and the Furious cast .
I knew I was only make believe!
Maybe instead of rice we should use "soy"...now there's an imitation product...
"Yo , Tran , why you put those fake rims on?Are you a Soy Boy?"
