Default Tenzo Type M...

I like the style of these wheels, but I know they have to be replicas of another wheel. Anyone have a clue what the original might be? I'm kinda worried about the quality of Tenzo's wheels.

Pls send me a PM if you find an answer to this. I've grabbed that same image form a site featuring a project GR. I really like the design of these wheels and they are the only wheels I'd consider paying good money for.

A bit on the heavy side, not too bad, I dont think they are forged though. I think they clear the Brembo's, I read they clear the Evolution X's calipers.

I think you are right.
The only way I can get the concave face with the Tenzo wheel is to go with a 10" wide wheel, which only comes in 19-inch. 18-inch diameters only come in 8-inches wide as the widest. 'll have to check the Neez wheels and BBS's out.
