I have searched and searched...I cant seem to find "much" info...instead I find just pics!

Can anyone help me out with these 2 choices? Will they fit my car, proper offset? Weight?!!?

I am looking at 17" btw...

3 piece wheels look 10x's better...

both are nice in 3 piece design!

Only prob with the 3piece is that they weight a TON more than the 1 piece! I read at some site 16lbs for the 17" 1 Piece CR, 23 lbs for the 3 peice CR!

Thats a pretty significant change...not to mention the 3piece ones cost double... :)

I like the M5, 5 spoke is a classic rim design

Thanks for the reply guys...!

Well I went today to buy my rims...I had settled for the M5's, but apparently they are discontinued in 1 piece...so I went with another choice.

After alot of reading last night on these boards, I wanted 18" rims instead! I didnt want to regret buying 17's later on...if I want to race at the track, I will simply swap my stock 16's back. If I am on the street with my 18's...I will simply turn the nitrous on and that should equal things out in a nice way.. :)

So after seeing the Z5000's in person...they look awesome. So I ordered a set of 18" Z5000's. :)


I am pretty excited...cant wait to put them on this spring!!!!!

i have the m5's on my black celi and i get compliments everywhere i go. not too many peoples i got them out here in orlando, but when i saw the CR's come out i was left drooling and close to swapping the rims...the CR's 3-piece are even more beautiful!

I like the name M5 so im going to vote for that just based on the name...but the CR's look better. The spoke indents on the M5's are too busy for a celi body. The celica has got alot of action going on already and so you dont need to add more...

Damn do those rims ever look nice on your ride!! Very nice man...

Too bad they were discontinued..couldnt get my hands on them. Heck, even the Z5000's were discontinued...but I managed to get my set. :)

I have them sitting in my living room right now since I cant put them on till spring!
