I was wondering if anyone has bought anything from http://www.team-dynamics.com/ and how they felt about them? What is this forging? Are all rims like this? Sorry I am new to the rim buying and I can get a set for $200 and I was wondering if I should do it for not. Which ones do you guys think would look best on a 6th Gen Accord? (17s)

i disagree.. 17s look just fine on my 6th gen accord (17x7.5 5zigen 5ZR copse with michelin pilot sport 225/45/ZR17) i just dont like the 'huge rim' image that most give off, its an accord, theyre not deisgned for huge rims like 19s.

and people who usually get 18s or 19s in rims get shit tires, like kumho,yokohama,etc... i only buy bridgestone potenza s-03 pole position or michelin pilot sport

What is so good about bridgestone and potenza tires? I didnt' know yokohamas were shit tires. Personally, I would rather get less expensive tires because they are gonna wear out fairly fast (whether you have a camber kit or not). Why spend a huge amount of money on a superior tire if they arent' going to last that long in the first place? Just wondering.

Actually the more expensive last longer see what companies try to do is make the tires soft while get a stong bond so they last. So the more you spend the softer the tire and the stronger the bond. I would spend dough on tires.

just go for the rims you like man...thats the general strategy
unless you are weight sensitive than look into something light

Well I did want 18s my only worry is the roads here in Baltimore are horrible and during the summer I work downtown and I have to drive like the worst roads in the state. I didnt want to pay all that money to screw them up in the city. Also what is the weight difference between 17's and 18s I dont want my car to get signifcantly slower since it is alread a I4 auto sedan. Thanks for your input. Finally what about this forging process?
