TA's are way played out. And the red rim around it doesn't work with a lot of the car it's put on, IMO.

Are you honestly saying TA's aren't played out?

That is by far the most used aftermarket rim on this car. Why be like everyone else? That's why I was literally laughing when that sticker guy got pissed off that someone copied it. Might as well hate the other 30 people who also bought those rims.

they're sick rims, style, performance.. alll rolled up into one light weight rim... how can you go wrong?

I agree with mike there is no "best rims", like he said different strokes for different folks.

But Mike's Pearl White TE's and Ill Roller' Gold Work Meister S1's are probably at the top of my list. And probably The TE's for the win just because they are truly one of a kind.

Just because a few people on the intraweb have TA's doesnt mean they're "played out" ... **** I've seen ONE set in real life and that was on an S2k ... As for on the internet I've seen maybe 3-4 sets on FG's... Played out? I think not.

This sums it up pretty well ::

Funny how people get all stoked when somebody posts tacky spray painted black Si wheels with a red lip then time attacks are mentioned and its nothing but hate

Jealousy &gt; most of you guys.

I'm not a fan of the gold works, but to each their own. They are still definitely head-turners but I'm not a fan of the concave look. I do like the low car without the SI wing though, +1 for creativity.

I liked all of Type-X's wheels with the exception of the Professor SP1's and the TA's (don't like the red TA on the blue car, doesn't really "flow", but its definitely baller lol). I was pretty indifferent on the white rims until I saw that close up shot. The flakes look great and I'm sure that internet pictures don't do these rims justice.

White TE's FTW !

Just because your pals on the internet have time attacks does NOT make them played out. I have yet to see a real set on a single car in my state and i'm sure unless you are at a huge show that you havent seen them either. I could care less that the iNt3r|\|3TZzz people have them, lets get back to reality here....
