Lenso LS5 rims, TSW Volcano rims

Has anyone heard anything about the Lenso LS5 19 inch rims. I found them at wheeldealerdirect.com, and was wondering what anyone thought of them. Also, I'm looking at the TSW Volcanos. Any thoughts on either would be great. Thanks.

Never heard of 'em. Watch yourself though . . . It doesn't look like you can get them in a staggered fitment, and you don't want 8" wide wheels on all four corners if you have a coupe.

Yes. Do you have a G Coupe? What OEM wheels do you have?

Yeah, I have an 03 coupe with 17s oems. I think I'm interested in the 19 inch axis matrix, and they come staggered in 19s. I'm just having a hard time finding a pic with hyper black, most of the pics look silver. Isn't hyper black a dark black, not a silver? I want something gray (gunmetal?), with a polished lip, but want to keep it under 2000 or so.

Hyper Black is not a dark black, but more of a gunmetal gray. In some light conditions, it looks almost silver. Attached are pictures of my hyper black PIAA's. You should also know that super black, at least from some manufacturers, is not black at all but a chrome finish like Rays Metal Coating.

Wow, thanks a lot for the explanation. That helps a lot. I was wondering why in some pics, the axis matrix wheels im looking at will look silver, but darker in others.

Yeah, you wanna do like 19X8.5 in the fronts and 19X9.5 in the back or 19X9.5 in the front and 19X10.5 in the back. The staggered look is sick and makes your car look aggressive as hell.
