Team Dynamics Mirage wheels are on!!

here they are... replaced the hyperblack tz10s from the other day... just thought that they were a little too dark for my taste so I went with these instead... I think they really compliment the PW on the car.... :smile:

Al,

Nice choice. Those could work well on my black car too. I have a feeling I'll see them next weekend.

Asaulo1, they look really good. Are these wheels 17" wheels? The most interesting effect of the new wheels (at least in your photos) is how the dish look around the rims of the Mirages adds to the look of your car. I had really developed a preference for the TZ10's, but seeing your car is giving me some second thoughts. Nice job!

thanks, all - yes, they are 17s... which is nice considering that they look bigger because of the color.... when I had the tz10s on it, they looked smaller..... I'm not sure how much they weigh but they are lighter than the tz10s that I installed the day before... the tz10s with the tires were 35 lbs. each... a weight savings of 5 lbs. per corner from the xlites and the runflats.... maybe this is a couple of pounds less :smile:

here's a nice profile shot... the spokes kind of curve in and out to give it a lot cooler look....
