Hey guys, i was checking out some rims today when I came across one I liked... The brand is Lenso and the model name is GTR. Wonder if anyone's heard of it, and what do you guys think of them? nice?
The rims are made in thailand.
Have you guys ever used this brand before?

Hit me up your feedback, i'm seriously thinking of getting them 17" for 1600AED.

I don't know though.. the price is good.. but I didn't read much about that brand ..

I'm still looking towards the rota wheels man.. They are a good brand...

If my girl is back, i'll check for their prices. As I said, they are a good proven brand..

Yeah Jin, The deepness is what i liked about them... plus they have a nice chrome lip with a different color on the main spokes. :D


Mikeh, I'm planning on sticking to 17s for weight reasons... good idea?


WTF, finally, someone's heard of them. :)
is it a decent brand? and where is this place you know?

I learned that things from sharjah.. are usually not of the best quality.

Think twice dude, you know what happens if you have heavy (and/or unbalanced) wheels...

17 inch, yeah it's lighter than 18 inch... But I'm this uncertain testosteron producred that always thinks that bigger is better!! hehehe... I like the sight of 18 inchers. But I'm actually thinking about getting some 16 inch lightweight's but that would be a lot of alignment all the time.. :/

well juz to let u know Mikeh :) !! ROTA and LENSO are now rivals in Philippines ... not all ROTA wheels are lights weight ! trust me ! same with Lenso ... and also ... ROTA's are cheaper in Philippines compared to Lenso. if u happen to know the Original price of Rota's in Philippines ull be shocked coz of 30-40 % added amount in da Internet

juz to add things up !! Lenso is also a main sponsor of some Teams in Philippines .. same like Rota

you can pick up both lenso and rotas from Saeed General Trading Sharjah - they claim they are originals but I would not trust them.

Lenso wheels are known to be cheaply moulded and corrode easily in the humidity - at least the ones someone got from SGT. :nono:

we have spoken many times to rota before about group orders - they have'nt been too keen.

They get funny when it comes to organise shipping and insist they ship it only to thier dealer - who ends up charging UAE prices!

some times it helps when you have filipinos working under rota itself..

wek, those actually look pretty sweet... I'm just worried about how much they'd cost with shipping. I'm kinda on a tight budget at the mo, just trying to get rid of some funny vibrations rom my current rims.

mike, i know what you mean... i'm tempted to go fo 18s coz they look way better than 17s, but dunno about the added weight... thanks for the advice...
i think i might go for them tho, they're quiet affordable (1200), and the finish is quiet good IRL.

WTF, thanks for the info... at least i know they're trusted in the philippines.

guys thanks for feedback! (Y)
