they're similar but not a imitation.. the lip on these are crazy.. can't wait. TSW's have been around a long time.. they aren't known to be "imitators" IMO.. if anything, they get imitated themselves..

Car looks great flipstream!

As for thos whels, where'd you get them, how much were they, and what do they weigh? :D I too am close to getting some wheels... I'd about decided on the Axis Hiros until I saw those TSWs.... and I'm really liking the TSW "Volcano"

Those volcano were my other choice! i think they're hot..

FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY


Gotta love that lip:


I got mine from buywheelstoday.. but the guys at wheelsdirectonline.com were also giving a great deal.. as far as the weights go.. i didn't ask.. TSW's usually don't run that heavy.. and i don't plan to be tearin up the track or drag strip anytime soon to be that concerned w/ weight..

oh, sorry.. he was just selling it. i'd call around and ask trussville, rosenthal or any of the other vendors we have here at the forum.. if you wanna save a little, i'd go get it unpainted and paint it. or, just order it painted.. or, if you have a black 8 or tit grey.. you could get it carbon fiber. good luck.

nope.. as long as you have the bodyshop get the right midcoat tint, you'll be good. You can also try paintscratch.com if you wanna do it yourself.

sorry Bomber.. didn't get that measurement.. maybe you can call Trussville or Rosenthal and they'll know the actual ground clearance.. (if i remember correctly, there's a thread out here discussing this topic.. g'luck!)
