want to go white on white for wheels..

[GetUpKid]

Hey guys, having trouble finding wheels.

I want a set of 19" White wheels with a chrome lip for my 08 coupe.

I found this one that I like but can't seem to find it for sale in the US...
They are Tenzo RS5 in white.

But if anyone could help me out, looking for probably 5 spoke, decently deep dish white wheels with chrome lip..... if i have to get them powdercoated I will but I'm not familiar with the process of getting that done.. anyone know of any wheels?

[tizo]

there's plenty of companies making white w/ chrome lip... they're mainly the VIP style rims, over racing style rims... meaning there's a price to pay!!! :lmao:

here's a sample link with plenty of choices to look through... if anything, it's just something to get an idea of what your looking for...

powdercoating is a real simple process that i won't go too into detail with... prices are not as bad as you may think and it's usually not too difficult to find someone local to you, depending of course, where you live...

[GetUpKid]

any others?

[Schu]

you can have any rim powder coated, and thats what I would suggest for you if you are serious

anyone have an idea on what that costs to get done? Thats seems like what I'm leaning towards.. or any recommendations for people who do it ? Thanks

I'm in massachusetts by the way if that helps...

negative...its got a chrome lip...but the rims are a machined silver...when i called to ask about these the dude told me they looked very white...its hard to tell from the pic...

A quick poke thru the internet found this site - not easy to do a global search, but just checking the first brand (ADR) it shows a lot of wheel options in white, and here's one in a 19" size as an example - might be a good one-stop-shopping site to just search all the mfgr's...

Linea Sport line has some nice white ones...

No chrome on these, but I thought they looked nice. Forged Performance is an authorized dealer for Volk Racing, so I would believe they could acquire these guys for you in any size you would require. Also Butler Tire can get you some HRE wheels in ANY configuration you desire, just be for warned HRE wheels are quite pricey (roughly $1,400 per wheel; forged monoblock) but are of excellent quality, and extremely light weight. :thmsup:

yea those are volk racing ce28N, cost bank but well worth it!!

[GetUpKid]

what would you recommend for offset and tire size for 19?

[8thGenInspire]

Size: 19x8.0
Offset: +48
Bolt Pattern: 5 x 114.3

thats what I would go with.

[onewheelup]

Offset: I wouldn't go any lower that +40 and for tire size 235/40/19

Here are some tools that might help you out.

http://www.rims-n-tires.com/rt_specs.jsp

[XenChi]

Rim Size = 19 x 8 (Offset 55)
Tire Size = 245/40ZR19
Bolt Hole PCD = 114.3 (5 Holes)

These are the specs for HFP (Honda Factory Performance) 19 inch wheels and tires. i would use these specs since they are OEM tried and true.

[GetUpKid]

thx guys appreciate all the help.

Unfortunately options are extremely limited when trying to find aftermarket wheels with anything higher that +45 offset.

honestly. why do car forums always have so many toolbags? the last car group i joined i would get so many similar responses.. if you don't have any informative feedback or replies... dont respond to my post..

i know how to google, and i did that prior to this post, but not much luck..hence why i posted here if someone already had better luck... i've obviously searched a lot, and i'm just asking for any extra help if people are willing

again, i appreciate it to those who have so far.

[jang859]

do a search yourself.

















just kidding! :biggrin:

thanks for the compliment!!! ...and if you go back and check, i gave you a couple of informative feedback and replies... the Google link i posted has many powdercoating companies AND descriptions of how they do the work... i thought that's what you were interested in and what i needed to point you in the direction of, but apparently... i'm a toolbag??? awesome!!!

i'm not intending to come off as a jerk, by any means, and i assure you that you're the first to say so... it just didn't seem like any of the posts given to you have helped any... like it was said before, it's waaay easier to find the rim you like and powercoat... if you at least tell us where in Massachusetts you're located, i'll even find a place you could DRIVE to and drop off rims...

we just need more info, that's all... otherwise, we're just posting rims till you say you're happy... :dunno:

i hope you don't take these forum posts to heart... we're here to help... try not to jump to conclusions so easily... life's short and you need rims!!! :yes: LOL...

thx for the help.

sorry, i just lose it quick when people tell me to "search" its like.....i did, powdercoating is most likely whats going to happen, just hoping to save some costs and find a wheel thats already ready..

my hope was to find a 5 spoke wheel with a chrome lip that was already white... just to save time & $$$

thx for the input everyone.. and if someone finds a 5 spoke white w/ lip, then you're awesome. im so picky and i can never seem to find what i see in my head... theres ONE wheel i found but its only available in the UK apparently... is called the LENSO RS-5 http://www.potn.co.uk/watermark1~POTN~images/lenso/rs5-white-425x425.jpg

[dexterdog]

Just for price comparison I was recently quoted forty bucks per wheel including prep to powdercoat my factory wheels black.

[GetUpKid]

just an update.. i'm going to order 20" TSW Nogaro's and getting them painted or powdercoated white.
