i like the spoke setup of these, but all the bronze tenzo's that i saw have the 10 hole setup...wasn't able to find any with this particular design that were 5 hole.

but i agree with you cionide

What do you guys think abouth these 18" bronze Enkei flc-01? I can get them from discount tire for $165(- $100 if I buy online from them). They are 18x7.5 with a 45 offset I believe. Will these be fine with that offset? Still debating between the 17" and 18". I would love the bigger size I just don't know if I want to compromise comfort and gas mileage. I'm liking the enkei ev5 too. I like how the flc-01 looks bigger. I can get the flc-01 in 18" only and the ev5 in both.

Yes, they'll fit fine. Face of outer wheel lips will be 1/2" closer to edge of fenders than OEM steelies. Go with 225/40-18 tires.

Bronze looks cool. I like the five spoke style.

i originally liked the bronze look, but i think i might have to go gunmetal or a dark metal because i'm getting a fig grill in that color and exhaust that will be similar too...i duno how it would look with bronze rims, dark silver grill and silver exhaust...i don't want it to clash too much...

any opinions?

Considering your new grill and exhaust, bronze wheels would clash, IMHO. If I had gone with bronze wheels on my NBM, I would have removed my silver emblems and painted them bronze to match for at least some color congruity.

where in bmore are you located? i moved to glen burnie last year.

yea...i don't want 4 different metal colors on my car. I think gunmetal or hyper black may be the way to go now.
