Falken Torque5

Post by BlackVGT »

Hey guys, I was originally wanting Mille Miglia Evo5's for my car, kind of expesive and hard to get up here in canada, then I found Falken Torque5's. Anyone able to photoshop these onto a Black Vibe GT? I'd love to get an idea on what they'd look like.P.S. Can't figure out how to attach a pic of the wheel, wheel pic can be found at http://www.factorytuned.com under wheels section. Also, anyone know what they weigh? Can't find that info anywhere!

Those Torque5's are pretty nice! I've attached the image from their website below for easier access. What size are you planning to get?As far as weight, check out the link below and scroll down to the Torque5 section - looks to display the weight there (appears to be in LBS). http://www.edgeracing.com/wheels/falken_wheel/I'm not a photoshop guru so I'll leave that up to someone else. Oh yeah, what color? Silver, Chrome, or Gunmetal?

Hey thanks NSimkins, I appreciate that. I'd like to go 18x8, not sure what finish to go with, gunmetal or silver? Hmmm, its a black Vibe, can't decide just yet.

I believe Fialcher has torque5's on his Vibe..PS I suggest you contact Julie @ http://www.miamitireoutlet.com and ask her for her rock-bottom deal. I picked up my 18" set of Falken Circuit Spec w/ Nankang NS2's mounted/balanced/shipped w/ tuner lugs/key/centercaps for ~$1,000. Tell her Christian sent you!
