As is not too bad, but I need to see them mounted, washed, and with a drop to make a final decision.

Well I got springs coming in on Tuesday. Won't have them mounted till Saturday. Then I kinda want to drive on the new springs for a week so they break in a bit. Then I can put the wheels on and get an alignment.

But once I mount the wheels there are NO returns! So I'm a little worried.

What is it about them that you are concerned about? Not my style but they look cool. And why would you break in the springs before putting the wheels on? A week isn't going to do anything to the new setup, unless there's something I am missing...

I'm not sure if I like the style. They looked better in the magazine. And I was told to let the springs break in then to do alignment to avoid camber.

They will look nicer than stock for sure. Tough to go wrong with 5 spokes. The BIGGER question is can you do better? I think you can depending on how much you want to spend.

Good luck, it's a big decision. Go with your instincts...

So I have decided to return the TSW Vairano's. Instead I will be getting the TSW Jarama's (silver with chrome lip). These wheels are more sleek and I like the silver better than the Mirror cut face. I am also gonna go for the Staggered look. What you guy's think? I making a good or bad choice?

Both five spoke.....pretty close call but I think I like your 2nd pic better, a little more detail. Would be nice to see that first set on a car.

I think you made a good choice on picking the second one. You better put them on when you get them!

Much better my friend, much better. Now you got the right one!

I'm sure your instincts feel much more at ease now. You're going to slap these on as soon as they arrive at your doorstep. This I know...

the Jarma's are a common wheel... they both are going to change the appearance of the car dramatically i like your first choice... but either way once they are on.. you are the only one that sees the car everyday..so get what you like to look at....

Another Update:

Thanks Everyone but I had a hard time choosing the right wheels with the thousands and thoasands that are out there.


I have finally made up my mind. I am keeping the Vairano's. It's gonna cost me an extra $299.00 to switch for other wheels and I have spent alot of $$$ on these. The Vairano's were my 1st instinct. So thats what it's gonna be. I will take pics 2morrow.
