2012 c63 with TSW wheels
Hi Guys - New to the board and just wanted to post up some pics of my 12 c63 with TSW Interlagos wheels. I couldn't find any pics of them before buying so thought this would help anyone interested - they look great on the car.

Well, I bought them from the dealer as part of my lease, so I got raped..but the Interlagos/and Toyo T1s tires are only about $2200 if you buy them online

Nice wheels.. TSW have nice design & are inexpensive. I would just be careful as they are cast wheels. My brother in law had a set of 17's on her Acura, and after 2 years of driving, they were square. Lol Well, at least they don't cost much.

BTW, how did u get aftermarket wheels as part of a deal through dealership? Never heard u could do that.

^ I dont know about the rest of their wheels, but the Interlagos are forged - The Tampa bay dealership sells wheels, headers, tune, airboxes, etc, all under warranty. Very expensive though.

Nice to see the post and photos. We were lucky enough to have him in yesterday to install the H&R springs and snap some photos.

If you like this set up be sure to check pricing with us.

Rotary forging is a process that shapes the outer barrel of a wheel while using a very high pressure press while being spun around at high speeds.
This process causes aluminum molecules to align in a circular pattern while the barrel is being spun. This causes the barrel to have high strength while keeping low weight.

Jcarlucci1, car looks awesome!!

Warranty only accepted at Tampa bay dealership or ? How does that work? What brand tune/ headers?

Your car looks great! Nice touch on the mods

Very nice wheels.

Rotary forged aren't true forged wheels like HRE but regardless they are very good quality and relatively light weight. Great choice.

wat?

Nothing wrong with cast wheels. Plenty strong enough for track duty even. I've been road racing on cast wheels for over 10 years with no problems. This includes two wheeling off curbs for fun.

This was back in 1999, I'm sure aftermarket wheels have gotten better. I was just sharing his experience. Plus, it all depends where u live & what the road conditions are in ur area. I'm sure SF roads are not as bad as our Canadian roads.
