    Exactly what I was going to say. TSW's are also HEAVY AS FUCK (I used to have Revo's on my car), and bend hella easy. I think that hocks would look a hundred times better if they had a little bit of dish to them. Not a lot, but I hate wheels where the spokes go all the way to/past the lip of the rim.

      They kind of look like the BBS RX's. I like mine better though :D

          I can't place it, but RX's look so much classier.

            Could it be the OUTSTANDING finish, make, strength, quality...

              well they were pretty easy to clean at least :P

              I think I'm going to go with factor ix BBS this spring. the hocks looked alright in person and looked fine in motion, and didn't seem *too* heavy.. but I can't say I really miss them. I wondered what they would look like with my cars current suspension but I don't think they'd fit anyway.

                  damn what is this, a bash the hock's thread?? jeese...oh and the spokes dont go all the way to the edge, there is a lip, its just not polished like all the other newer rims. and they do look like the BBS's, only i got them for much much cheaper. oh and i dont appreciate the random claims against their strength etc, my frend had them on his car for about 2 years, and even autocrossed on them back in the days. they are perfectly straight to this day, so they must be made pretty well. besides, who cares if they are heavy, tons of ppl here have the 21lb type T's that are only 16x7.5, where as the hocks are 23.4lb 17x8's...besides, im not going to be doing any racing on these rims, thats what the bottle caps with the sticky tires are for...

                      Rwh11385, he is the current owner of the car now. Not sure what happened to the previous owner. David does browse through here but doesn't post much.(david325is) i believe.
