Reformatting and doing a fresh install now... bye bye longest lasting Windows OS install ever for me (3+ yrs w/o a reinstall - 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 )
hopefully things will ease up for you

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

( Click to show/hide )


and

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.

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.
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:

Good morning!!!

One cancelled connecting flight, airline change after I had to cry in front of the ticket agent in ATL so she would not make me stay overnight, one major gate change at last minute in DFW, plane full of seemingly first-time flyers and then it was finally home. I love 20 hour days.
