TSW wheels

Anyone looked at these? A full set can be had for under $1400 and the weight looks good. Wheels look good as well. TSW Alloy Wheels | The Nurburgring in

The ones OP posted are not too bad at all

Some of their others are pretty heavy but are still well made.

actually not too heavy at all... I forgot the exact weight. It was on my slow benz DD so I wasn't too concerned
I had the TSW Thruxton 19''

i think i read that the nurbs are 22-23lbs for the 19x9/10.5 which is in-par with most mid-grade high performance tuner wheels.

if you can get near 19lbs you are in high-grade performance wheels. if you can get to 6lbs like the Weds CF wheels, then that is crazy super high-grade and expect to pay $10K+ for a set.

anything over 25 becomes pretty noticable in handling and especially braking.

I had a set of the Thruxtons as my first wheels, they stood up to the crazy pothole-infested streets of West LA but were noticeably heavier than my current NISMO's.. (around 28+lbs vs 20lbs) and you felt the difference in acceleration
