Rep Power: 584 i have passions (also with the rivets), and they look good. you guys can talk all you want, but getting 2 piece or 3 piece rims that would probably end up being around $2000 is a waste.
i like the shu 10s, they look good.
BTW - speaking from experience with bumpy roads, tenzo rims are stupid sturdy!! we had construction on one of our highways here and the idiots didnt put signs for rough roads, so i ended up running over a 2" edge in the highway at like 50, and i thought the rim would be ****ed, but theres barely anything on it. theres like a slight bump in the lip and nothing else. ive ran over A LOT of potholes because our roads suck and the rims have held up amazingly. very good product!! you wont regret it.

Rep Power: 280 ^--- I agree about the strength of tenzo rims. i have 18s... i was on the AC X-way and hit a 3" deep pothole at around 85mph. I hit so hard the rear wheel cleared the pothole and it blew out my front tire. however, the rim only has a slight bend in the outer polished lip.
these things are rediculous. buy them if its a daily driver car with plus sized wheels. the fake rivets kinda suck (and i have them... lol), but the good looks and durability is well worth it.

17" TenzoR Passion5s in white with optional blue center cap.
I can also admit as to how hella strong these things are. I've hit one of those "highway speedbumps", a place where they patched a seam, at like 85mph, and only suffered a small bend in the outer lip of the rim. I love these things and I don't think I'll ever get rid of them. The only problems with them is the ding in the lip and I've got some curb damage. Other and that, I don't think I'll ever change them.
