New TSW wheel styles launched today

Personally, I'm not really a fan of most of the new ones but I figured I'd throw them out there. On the bright side, my wife will be happy that I'm not looking to buy my 3rd set of TSW's in as many years. Some of the highest quality wheels you can get without going to crazy high end stuff like HRE, BBS, Volk, etc. I'm still trying to get them to put the RL on their website configurator.

Amaroo:



Monaco:



Rouen:



Sochi:



Tremblant:

Sochis would look nice on the RL. Similar to these Stance wheels or CV3s.

Definitely similar to the CV3's and a lot of other wheels out there. Surprisingly, I think I actually like the Monaco best, just not for an RL.

I've never been a big fan of lips. At least, not on my wheels...

Just a little update, the Sochi and Parabolica are both rotary forged. Still waiting for TSW to post the specific weights for these wheels but that means the Sochi should be noticeably lighter than something like a Vossen CV3. Same price, better quality and lighter. Can't go wrong there.

Good looking options and nice lipped-wheels! Good stuff from a great wheel brand.

Pretty much, although I'm really digging Parabolica's. They almost look like a remade version of the TSW Crofts... Sochi works, but only a few car can pull off a five spoke well.

Just FYI, I spoke with TSW a few days ago and most of these wheels will not be available until after the first of the year.
