    TSW finally gets the point...



    I LOVE six-spoke wheels, and these are fucking awesome. Very simple, no stupid fake rivets, no lame-ass spoke details. Just 6 spokes and a little bit of a lip.
    I think I'm going to order a set of these when I get my car. Set of 4 17 x 7, $749, and I can get them cheaper than that.
    I know TSW's run a little heavy, but I'm not really concerned with the performance of them. What do you guys think of them? I bet they would look SICK with some roundels on the centercaps.

      And have the same wheels that just about every other E30 right now has. No thanks.

      I've never really liked Alpinas. Just not my style.

        i just snagged a set of Brock B1s in 9x16 for $1000 shipped...
        that's only about $200 more...not many people are running
        those on this side of the pond...if you opt for 7.5x16, they are
        even less...

              No one runs them because most of us are drivers. Those wheels fit like ass, and you have to run some skinny little tire on them.

              Not a drivers wheel.

                they also make brock B1 in 16x7.5, which would be pretty cool actually.

                  I actually really like the way those wheels look, although i'm skeptical about their strength with TSWs background. I'd take them over kopi's any day, just a personal preference

                    Yes, but you see, I don't want Brock B1's. I want THOSE wheels up there. :D

                        SSR Comps do it for me :twisted: Those look to follow the styling of the SSR wheel, without all the cool forged technology, hence the low price. I say go for it Josh.

                          Yeah, they do look very similar to SSR's which is why I like them so much. I think I'm definitely going to get them.

                          Gotta get me a car first tho. :D

                            SSR comps do it for me because they weigh like 6lbs :-)

                              Do you know the weight of them? They do look a lot like the SSR comps. I know you like the 6-spoke wheels a lot, but those wouldn't be very high on my list of 6-spokes. I like the Borbets a lot better.

                              *PS, your new sig kicks ass hardcore.
