I will def go wider (11 or12) on the wheels if the tires are 275 & 305/315.

We put 275 on 19X10 or even 19X11, I can't imagine putting 305/315 into a 10in...

TSW used to make cheap wheels but they raise the bar alot these couple years and now consider one of the very good quality brand and good price.

I was looking at this brand too when I was shopping for wheels, most of the feedbacks I've read is good. I suggest you can go for it.


The weight for a 20X10 is about 29lbs.





For that price, I think TSW is very good value, cos a set of Enkei will prolly cost more.

I checked the Nurburging before, it's very light weight, and for a set of rotary forged wheels with that price it's very hard to beat.

But eventually I found a picture of a Z fitted with those wheel and I was like.... wow... now the Z looks like a hotwheels...




If you don't mind single 5-spokes, take a look at this one:

TSW Tanaka, comes with 20X9 & 20X10.5, Rotary Forged.





Or.. you can look at alcheng's:
I like your wheels Alex I had seen them in person at the one meet

As for the weight of the other wheels I am not to concerned about that as I am not going to be doing heavy tracking or anything it is more for aesthetics. I am more concerned about the quality of the rims for when I do "push" my car (on the track of course


Then again I can't even make up my mind! I find my self still looking at other wheels and then back to Nismos again and then full circle to every other wheel I have liked while looking

I wish I would have known you were going to be in my part of Ga. I would have taken you out for a free lunch!

I also like these and might look into how much it is to get a set made to how I want them to fit!

Use them for track days.
The stock wheels are much nicer.
