Where to buy TSW wheels

Where to buy TSW wheels

Postby slamd02ranger » Mon Sep 04, 2006 3:13 pm

I've got my eyes set on some TSW wheels and I'd like to get a list of websites that sell them. What are the best sites for wheels?

Also, will there be any rubbing issues when turning at full lock with 18x8 with a 40+ offset?

I'm looking into getting some chrome 17 or 18 inch TSW Vortex wheels.

I would probably stay away from TSW. They make their wheels really soft. My friend bought a set and in not even a month he bent 2 of them.

I would have thought they improved there quality over the years but my friends wheels proved me otherwise.

I would try to get them at discount tire/america's tire store. they'll match any price you can find, wheel and tires.

i'm getting my new wheels from them.

Thanks for the compliment. The TSW's will be going on my truck. But since my solara and truck share the same bolt pattern, they will bolt up to the solara whenever I feel like it 8)

Yeah i would suggest avoidin' them, and debris on the road.
I tried to dodge a plastic PVC pipin' of some sort, that was maybe only 2 inches thick, and it bent the rims slightly goin' about 70mph.... :x

I only drive my truck about 3,000 or less per year. I don't think I'll have to worry about messing up the wheels too much.
