Fine... ice builds up on the leaves and branches... the added weight causes a big branch to break and fall on your neck, killing you. Is that possible in your little ice world? :p

Alloy Wheels and Rims Inventory Search for TSW | www.tsw.com


the front comes in pretty good sizes for stock height.
19x9 ET30 and 19x9.5 ET40

The rear 19x10.5 ET27...kinda weak but doable.

no idea on weight.

the face looks like my ssr's on my G. :icon17:

the only tsw's id consider on the Z so far had been the nurbs. they are light weight and look pretty good. not much concavity though. the ones above look somewat concave. :)

ya they are concave which is what I want to go with. Here is a link to the FS thread where I found them, they aren't even very expensive which is why I asked

yah, i would wait to see the actual concave on the front wheels. it's possible that the picts are only showing the rear wheels and that's not very "concave" looking. the fronts could be even less concave.

that's one of the reasons why i got the weds. those wheels are massive curvy concave. they are so curvy, the front spokes protrude past the lip like the advans. only a sexy car like the Z can pull off such wheels in style. :tup:

this is without the 5mm spacers up front.

G'Night Everyone :hello:

Computer is still jacked (DPC latency spikes like crazy - it's the DirectX Graphics Kernel causing problems but I haven't been able to fix it). Reformatting and doing a fresh install now... bye bye longest lasting Windows OS install ever for me (3+ yrs w/o a reinstall :icon17: - I don't think I've ever had a Linux install last for less than 5 years except when I muck it up myself or simply reinstall for the sake of change :tup:)

Let me know what you guys think and does anybody know anything good or bad about TSW wheels? I searched but nothing in the first 2 pages had any threads warning not to buy them or anything :ugh2:

( Click to show/hide )

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.... :icon14: wow... now the Z looks like a hotwheels... :ugh2::ugh2:

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

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