Tenzo GF7
I am looking for opinions on the quality of this wheel. Does anyone know anything about this company? And how this wheel will ride on a 2GS?
I know I like the design and the lip is good size for the rears, plus the rears are 10" wide and not the normal 9.5. I just want to make sure I am not buying junk, any opinions or advice on what wheel making processes I should stay away from and which I should focus on?
I love this rim and want it bad, just dont want junk....

Thanks, Mole

Hey Mole,
Do you have more details on this wheel setup like:
1.Cast/forged
2.Weight
3.If they are really multy lug (it doesn't look right to me if they are)
4.Color, i hope you are looking at HYPER BLACK or GRAPHITE not BLACK
Did you ever consider Enkei RPF1 in 19'' size, take a look at this:
Conservative setup
19x8.5 +42 Front 19.8lbs
19x9.5 +42 Rear 19.6lbs
Professional setup:
19x8.5 +22 Front 19.8lbs
19x10 +22 Rear 20.7lbs
In this case fender modding will be required, but results think about that
I strongly sugest that you read manufacturing process for Enkei RPF1, it is very intresting how strong and lightweight they can be, they pricey but you already know how much cheap wheels really cost, so there you go.....
Here is the link for you to study:

P.S. Before i ordered my Work Wheels, i almost bought these and the only reason why i didn't was that i got great price for SL's from D2

Thanks Jake and Vborder,
yeah, the quality is where I am concerned, so I need to look into all of your questions Jake. I think they are cast wheels and while that may be perfect for some cars, our Lexus just seem to bring out all the bad stuff in wheels from what I hear. I would go with hyperblack as my choice and actually stick with the conservative 42 setup because I dont have the time to mess with the fenders.
I like the enkeis, but I would probably have to talk with Derrick at D2 before I make my choice to see what else he may have.
I like the MRR HR2 as well, and since it comes in chrome and is staggered it may be another hot choice for a silver car... ??

I like MRR HR1, i think they would be great chice for silver GS. Personally i don't like chrome rims and they are much more expensive to fix (curb rush) and heavier
