TSW Wheels

How are TSW wheels as far as quality and price compared to some of the more "popular" Maxima choices? (MM Evo 5, Moda R6, etc.) I've seen the 2003 brochure and they have some decent looking wheels.

Also, will a 35mm offset on an 8" rim work on a Max (5th Gen) with a 245/40-18 tire?

Thanks in advance for your input.

I've seen some 2003 TSW wheels locally just last week, look very nice. But don't know if they are heavy like their old stuff. That size and offset would be great for 245.

I had TSW Stealths (no longer made) on my Audi. I liked them and had no problems. Looking back, they probably were heavy. But the price and qulaity was great. Good luck.

Specific style...

The wheel I was interested in is their new "Heaven 7". Unfortunately it only comes in chrom, but I think It would look good on my 02 Max.

Tifosi, did you see this one in person?

I had a set of tsw revos on my car. very heavy wheels (they were 18" chrome) but awesome quality. They took a real beating in nyc for over a year and never bent or anything and I drove them hard.

I decided it was best to keep my 17x8 TSW VX1 as winter wheels. A bit on the heavy side, but very durable wheels.

I've got the TSW Hockenheim R's (chrome) - which they dont' make any more - for my summer wheels, and they are very durable. Heavy as heck, but durable. The offset you mentioned should work for your application, I believe. Shouldn't be too much of a problem with rubbing or anything.

And those Heaven 7's look sweeeet!
